Yamaha YZF R1 s claimed to have a top speed of 284.4 km/h.

The bike is classy and much impressive. It comes fitted with a 998 cc engine, which comes endowed with a 6 speed transmission, that assures easy gearshift. The 4 potted engine features the DOHC technology and is tuned to be more fuel efficient. Yamaha R1 has been furnished with a 77 mm Cylinder Bore and a 53.66 mm Stoke. It delivers an excellent power of 108 PS at 12,500 rpm and an unbeatable torque of 112.7 Nm at the rate of 10,000 rpm.

This masculine engine is capable of a good acceleration and pickup without any vibration and noises, even at a higher speed. The suspension system is praiseworthy and it is built to absorb the maximum shock and provide greater stability to the bike. The bike comes stuffed with latest technologies, which make it stand beside the crowd. It has got a great ground clearance of 135 mm and an overall length of 2060mm. The broad tyres are powerful enough to control itself during off-roading and skidding. The fuel tank capacity is about 18 liters. In summary, the bike is attractive enough, but is costly and demands more, much more maintenance.
