The colour scheme is a nod to the classic Yamaha livery, and is painted in pearlescent white, with the matching R1 red colour scheme reminiscent of its first generation super-bike.
The bike needs to be seen close up, to be appreciated. It rides superbly and has covered approx. 600 miles since being finished. It starts on the button and rides superbly. Great bike to stand out from the crowd at your local Sunday Café stop. I’ve got hundreds of pics of the bike during the build and more finished pictures on request, but realistically needs to be seen close up to be appreciated. Its been very well received by everyone who's seen it close up, you'll not be disappointed. Bike is Tax and MOT exempt, registered as a classic on the V5 which is in my name.
