Description from the seller
Beautiful and original Yamaha YZF R1 from the first year of production.
In 1998 the R1 was the ultimate Superbike. Nothing came close to the power and performance of this Yamaha. But even today it is still a seriously tight-handling motorcycle that modern sport bikes have trouble matching. You really don’t need more than 150 hp!
This R1 is from the first year, 1998, and thus the most brute and sought-after version.
In very good, nice and original condition with no scratches or dents.
Now with a fat exhaust rear end but the original exhaust is also included. Also there is a steering damper fitted.
No shifting problems and no oil consumption.
In short, a beautiful and good motorcycle.
After the red-white R1, this blue R1 has increasingly increased in value lately, so much better and, above all, more fun than money in the bank. In terms of color, also nicer than the red-white one and of course the real Yamaha color.
Possible export documents in the buyer’s name at cost price of €150

Catawiki always aims to offer you the best possible buying experience. Our experts virtually review and select every vehicle in line with our submission guidelines and we require our sellers to provide the most accurate description of the vehicle. However, providing a fully detailed analysis of the vehicle is extremely difficult, and close to impossible. To guide you, we ask our sellers to provide information about the vehicle’s condition. Please consider that most vehicles for sale are classic vehicles and they often already have a whole life behind them, meaning that even a condition 1 or 2 vehicle might need maintenance to be ready for the road. It is advised to carefully read our submission guidelines that further describe details about the condition grades and types to manage your expectations. Cars are sold “as is”, meaning as described and in the condition they are in at the time of the sale and without any representation, warranty or assumption of liability of any kind as to the condition by Catawiki or by the seller. The condition of this item is the opinion of the seller and may differ from yours, your local garage, or the dealer’s opinion. This does not automatically mean the car does not conform to its description. Before bidding, please check your local legislation regarding vehicle registration. Neither the seller nor Catawiki is responsible for the registration of the vehicle in your country and will not accept a cancellation for your failure to register the vehicle. We also recommend that, if possible, you arrange a viewing with the seller before placing a bid.
