4. Yamaha YZF-R1
Forth on our list of 10 Best Sport Motorcycles, we have the Yamaha YZF-R1 model.
The Yamaha YZF-R1is an open class super-bike manufactured by Yamaha Motor Company since 1998.
After redesigning the Genesis engine, Yamaha launched the YZF-R1 to create a more compact engine by raising the gearbox input shaft and allowing the gearbox output shaft to be placed beneith it.
This design feature was revolutionary, and has set a precedent for other manufacturers to follow.
A new generation of R1 was announced on November 3rd 2014, and comes with a power of over 200bhp and numerous new electronic rider aids.
