The 1998 Yamaha YZF-R1 is one of the most influential sportbikes ever made. When it was launched, it effectively changed the superbike class by combining nearly 1000cc power with the weight and agility of smaller 750cc race bikes. Many riders consider it the bike that started the modern litre-bike era. Yamaha designed the R1 around a very compact “three-axis” engine layout, allowing them to fit a long swingarm into a short wheelbase chassis. This gave the bike excellent traction and handling while keeping it incredibly agile.
