Review
After a varied bike history over 15 years I brought a 2002 model R1. This is my 2nd R1 as I had previously owned an original 1998 model and later a Ducati 996S.
Making the swap back to an inline four was a bigger change than I'd imagined as the Ducatis twin engine delivered power so well from low down.
However my choice was made and I quickly refreshed myself with the R1 with happy results.
The 2002 fuel injected engine is so smooth and revs cleanly through the range providing a useable spread of power which can be used confidently without getting into too much trouble. I fitted a Remus Titainium exhaust system which releases a few extra bhp but I really fitted it for the beautiful crisp note and stunning looks. The build quailty is also top notch.
As with previous 'R' series bikes the bodywork fits well and is simple to remove for the purposes of cleaning etc, not a huge amount of storage room but then it is a no compromise sorts bike.
So back to the important stuff, Handling.. well the 2002 R1 lives up to it's reputation and is at home flowing through twisty A roads however it really comes into it's own on track. I still ride mine on its original suspension settings and the bike holds it's line beautifully. I run Pirelli Diablo Corsa 3s which give great feedback and are sticky enough for fast group track day riding. If I had to critise one thing with this bike it would be that the front end is still very light and when really putting the power down in low gears the bar may twitch a little. This was the same with the 1998 model but probably depends alot on your riding style. Either way this can be quickly cured by fitting a steering damper. I haven't as I like the feedback through the bars.
The brakes are still fantastic..enough said!
Finally.. looks! Well in my opinion the 02/03 model looks sharp clean and lightweight. It still has those intimidating sloping headlights and the addition of the slimline led rear is sharp and aggresive.
I enjoy riding this bike and even though there are newer, lighter and more powerful versions around, in the right hands it is as good as any of them.
My bike has the following:
2005 Rossi Valencia Paint Job
Renthal Grips + Sprockets
Remus Titainium Exhaust with Harris Hanger
Tail tidy and coloured undertray
Pazzo racing brake levers
Quick action throttle

Yamaha R1
My second R1 of this vintage actually a '99 model, fantastic handling and power for the year.
I owned an '05 new model for a while but did not find it as confidence building as this model, it did have more power but if you can't get it down on the road whats the point?
These bikes are pretty bullet proof mechanically as well, not like my pals MV Augusta, that old piece of poop never seems to be working.
Go on you know it makes sense, get yourself an R1 at have some wheelie good fun.

I have one of the injected R1's and bought it after a few years on a VFR800 as I wanted something a little sportier. The handling is superb and the bike feels very light and quck steering. It's pretty easy to find yourself turning in too early as it steers much quicker than my old sports tourer.
The bars do have a tendency to wag as the front goes light under hard acceleration but this is by no means a problem, just something to be aware of. The engine is an absolute beauty and has good usable power throughout the range but goes bananas around 9k rpm and lifts the front in 3rd. Still too scared to try those revs in 4th as God knows what speed it would be doing! The brakes don't feel that impressive but they do stop you very well so that's more down to me than the bike. Overall I love the R1. It's a way better bike than I'll ever be a rider, looks drop dead gorgeous and is far more comfy than I expected. I would buy another one and would recomend one to an experienced rider looking for a litre sportsbike.
