Yamaha YZF description

This is the predecessor of the well known R1. Bike runs and shifts good with lots of power. Haven't really got a chance to open it up but there is always extra throttle leftover. This is 1 beefy bike that's super comfortable for you and a passenger whether its long distance or on the the strip. Never raced or stunted since I've owned the bike. New chain, new sprocket and new rear tire with receipts to prove it. I am looking to upgrade to something newer, My loss your gain. Can be a great start for street fighter, track bike, custom ride or kept as is. Could use rear brakes and maybe a fuse for turn signals. Clean green Michigan title also willing to include matching leather jacket with inner shell for $100..... $2400 O.B.O. Delivery available pending on location- No Trades Thanks ....... text or call B for more pics or information

Authorities in British Columbia, Canada, have impounded a 2006 Yamaha R1 believed to have starred in a YouTube video reaching speeds of 299 kph (185 mph) on a freeway. The onboard video, embedded after the jump, captures the Yamaha weaving through traffic, and often lane-splitting between other vehicles, covering a 4.67 mile stretch of the Trans-Canada Highway in about a minute and 56 seconds. That translates to an average speed of 144.6 mph.
