Yamaha R1 2009

Of course, the new R1 engine also passed all the tough Yamaha stress tests and comes with the same guarantees as other Yamaha motorbikes. Because until now, it was precisely the issues of durability and reliability that prevented series production of such an engine.

Sophisticated sound

good feeling for power delivery

easy handling

hydraulic spring preload

high level of workmanship.

Suboptimal seating position

somewhat difficult cornering over long distances.

The new Honda CBR600RR divides minds above all with its idiosyncratic front - and that's a good thing, after all, this makes it perceived as completely new and different from its predecessor. That this is not the case is proven by the rest of the machine, the high-mounted rear silencer, the chassis and the engine are largely unchanged.

Super design

sporty look

powerful engine

pleasant ergonomics

optimal braking system.

The fittings could have been done better - at least in terms of appearance.
