Pros and Cons in comparison
Yamaha R1 2015

The new R1 is a big hit and no longer compares to the previous model. This was considered a good country road bike and heavy investments had to be made for excursions to the race track. Now it is the other way round. The new R1 has been developed with a clear focus on the race track. The electronics package seems outstanding, technology freaks will get their money's worth. Yamaha fans have to buy it, they finally have a worthy motorbike. The R1 has slight weaknesses when braking - it becomes a little unstable here. If you want to buy a ready-made racing bike without having to work on the chassis, you'd better go for the R1M. The Öhlins electronic suspension works perfectly and has no weaknesses. For pure racetrack use, the second weakness of the R1 can easily be ironed out. The torque hole in the middle can be easily ironed out with a new mapping.

The GSX-R 750 is the golden mean in many respects. It offers a level of performance that doesn't overwhelm you on the road, but at the same time gives you a lot of pleasure. On the one hand, it is relatively inexpensive, but on the other hand, it is still fast enough. The GSX-R 750 is a great supersport machine. If you don't value superlatives and just want a good motorbike, go for the GSX-R 750 and use the money you save to treat yourself to race training on the Nordschleife....
