I n the day a phenomenally fast powerful machine-think it was the first Yamaha to use the Deltabox frame. It was quoted as 140bhp with a top end of 170mph. As BBROWN says a quick way to lose your licence. I couldnt afford one then either-now Im happy with the Fazer thou as they are relatively cheap nowadays with more than enough power for my needs. Think the FZR1000R was the best handling Jap superbike until the Fireblade came along. See a few for sale in MCN etc but getting one that hasnt been thrashed within an inch of its life...? :eek
