Yamaha YZF-R description

Regrettably, selling my 2003 Yamaha YZF-R1 Limited Edition (~15,000 miles) and accessories. It has a fresh oil and filter change and new battery.

 

This is a one-owner, adult-owned and ridden bike that has always been garage kept, never laid-down or crashed, and was broken-in according to manufacturer recommendations. It was mainly used to commute to and from work, getting about 50mpg. Any areas of note/scratches are described in the pictures.

 

This bike is all original and has never been modified, with the exception of the following:

Added Daytona adjustable steering stabilizer (I believe it is a Shindy).

Added K&N air filter.

Added frame and clutch sliders.

I replaced the rear tire with a 180/55 instead of using the original 190/50 size. The current tires are upgraded to Dunlop Sportmax 209GP's originally priced at over $600 per set.

 

I have all of the original bolts/brackets, etc. that were removed when the above modifications were made. I am also including a 'matching' cargo net, wheel/disc lock, Lockhart Phillips tank cover, and a Nelson Rigg bike cover.

 

I am hiding nothing with regards to this bike. I will say upfront that it has been to the track (where I was scolded for being too slow and in the way, so it has never been pushed to its limits) and that it has also been sitting for a number of years in storage. I have inspected the bike and all appears to be in order. The chain and sprockets were replaced shortly before storage and are in good condition. The inside of the tank is spotless and the fuel system shows no signs of concern. There was no oxidation or anything of that nature on any surface when I pulled the bike out of storage. The only thing I discovered was a slight sidewall crack on both sides of the rear tire. This appears to be cosmetic. I have taken the bike on test rides and, while I am not personally concerned, these tires are several years old.

 

At this time I am considering only local pick-up with cash payment or PayPal.
