Avantages et inconvénients en comparaison
Avantages et inconvénients en comparaison
Yamaha R1 2016

La fusée high-tech de Yamaha est toujours à la pointe de la technologie en 2016. Radicale, polarisante et fascinante, elle réalise de puissants temps au tour. Elle est plus proche des motos de course que les autres 1000. Entre-temps, personne ne se plaint de l'avant. Sans "M", elle est le meilleur choix pour ceux qui n'ont de toute façon pas besoin d'Öhlins ou le meilleur choix pour ceux qui prévoient de toute façon une transformation sur circuit et qui aiment monter du matériel Öhlins "normal", sans truc électrique.

Ce qui reste, c'est la fascination, la stupeur et la peur. On ne peut pas se défaire du sentiment désagréable de ne pas être tout à fait soi-même sur cette moto. On a l'impression d'assister à un concert de heavy metal avec des boules Quies.
