Yamaha R1 2021

The Yamaha YZF-R1 is mature and makes countless racetrack pilots happy. The engine shines with lightness and agility, the seating position surprises positively and the handling is radical but still "suitable for the masses". The machine immediately stands out visually and also because of the heart-warming sound. Especially on the country road, the bike scores with its well-known strengths: great engine, great electronics, great package! A real pleasure to ride!

For the fact that Honda has actually only announced an update, hardly a stone has been left unturned on the new Fire Blade. Some of the new features are of course due to the new EURO standard, but many of them are really aimed at improving drivability. I am very pleased that, especially in times like these, when more and more manufacturers are withdrawing from the high-performance and expensive superbike segment, Honda is once again devoting its full development power to improving what is already good and thus demonstrating what is technically feasible. Because even if these bikes are no longer affordable for many of us, they still demonstrate the know-how or the technical possibilities. And over time, these will also find their way into the 0-8-15 bikes from which the majority of motorcyclists will then also benefit.

Improved seating position

Rideability very good

Powerful engine

Throttle split gives the rider a lot of confidence

Chassis also suitable for the racetrack in automatic mode
