It was 2009 when all over the world turned towards the Indian automobile market. It was such cool and unaffected by the world's recession. So lots of bikes won the hearts of youths all around the world started marching towards India to rock Indian hearts.

The one among the best rocker was Yamaha YZFR1 which has become the dream bike of most of the Indians.

The Bike has the Art-of-Racing YZF series bikes are best in performance in terms of speed and R1 being the leader of all YZF Racing bikes, R1 will be provide the ultimate experience for its rider. The Bike comes under super sports and the bike was the best among the super sports bike up to my knowledge.

The Bike is the most matured model i hope so, since it had 6 major up gradations.(1998(launch), 2000, 2002, 2004, 2006, 2007 and 2009)

When R1 was first launched it had 20Valves, but now it has 16Valves but the power has risen up and the Power ratio was 12.7:1 which was 12.4:1 previously.

Specifications:

1. Engine Displacement: 998cc
2. Engine Type: 4 stroke, DOHC, 16 Valve
3. Output Power: 180Bhp@12500rpm
4. Engine Torque: 118.3Bhp@12500rpm
5. Gear: 6 Speed
6. Weight: 177Kgs
7. Fuel Capacity: 18Ltrs
8. Top Speed: 300Kmph

Pros:

1. Leader of YZF Bikes
2. Top speed is very easy to achieve (within 45secs).
3. Handling and comfort is more satisfactory

Cons:

1. Too costly (11,50,000.RS)
2. mileage is too low (8Kmpl- worst mileage and Hayabusa gives the same worst mileage)

The bike was priced at 11,50,000.Rs and the company expects to sell around 500 bikes a year but my friend said that Yamaha customers will have reduced price.

Any how the bike is a Rocking Star in India.
