24 Years Later....Is My 2002 Yamaha R1 Still Special?

I have owned this 2002 Yamaha R1 from brand new, join me for a ride while I share why this bike still means so much to me We start with a quick walkaround before heading out onto the roads of Aberdeenshire for a relaxed POV ride, chatting about what its like to own an iconic superbike for nearly a quarter of a century. My R1 has changed very little since I bought it in March 2002. It has covered just under 8000miles and remains a bike I could never bring myself to sell. Every ride reminds me why this Yamaha R1 is so special and why some motorcycles become much more than just machines.
