Il order mine on my 18th birthday (finance reasons). iv riden the 08 R1 and if this 1s gonna be better then theyv done bloody well, its the best sounding road bike iv ever heard. Go yamaha! keep up the good job
As you probably already know, a lot of factors go into how an engine sounds. For example, the flat four in a Subaru boxer sounds very different from the Honda inline 4's, but put equal length headers on a boxer and it sounds less rumbly. But yeah, the crank gives the R1 engine a very unique flavor.
had a go on 1 today, what a machine it is ,the sound is unbelievable but sounds different to this video,now i want to sell my bike for one or a kidney if i can
Moto GP is 800cc right now, but the M1 really has very little in common with the R1. MotoGP = Prototype racing WSBK/SS = Racing actual prodcution bikes. Rossi just happens to be the Yahama spokesman.
it is only because the exhaust, with Akro pipes it looked not bad at all. I like my 08 alot better though. But id take the motor because of the crankshaft.
Even though he is very good, I would have loved to see Rossi riding the new R1. You would have thought Yamaha would just ask him to powerslide it and so on, it would sell more bikes rather then just using a test rider. It was not Vale, due to the Alpinestar kit been used.
DId I see what I think I saw at 1:33??! Notice how the video for yamaha america has that idiotic rock music playing ...the whole time I watched it I was like who wants to hear that when you could here the engine of this beast? then I found this video and was like there you go somewhere there are smart people.
this commercial would be better if Rossy felt something special and told about that to everybody, so you can playin mind how will feel down in your legs and driving it....because that's why all people buys this powerful bikes, for the way they make feel you its power....and try to do more easy to drive motos instead of so powerful, that would make people buy more, because that motos can scare to anyone who's not in the shape to drive them...
no he does not, because it is against his contract, basically if he ever gets hit by car or if some one spitefully want him out they can find him on the road, and there is lots of money on him, so there is your answer all professional dont ride outside of work
This crossplane crankshaft, 4 cylinder engine would cure everything thats wrong with the four cylinder engine, mainly the sound, if they made a 4 cylinder engine for a car with this crank I would buy it instead of a v8, it sounds Almost the same, just a little tiney.
So, that will be all the big four Japanese manufacturers litre bikes that look crap then. Think they should all step back a couple of years and try again. Will be awesome to ride though, and sounds pretty good.
nope ! cause he says "they're are so many fucking idiots on the cell phones" that's a quote from FASTER moto gp documentary. i'm pretty sure the contracts won't let him either.
I hear a little BRM v16 in the exhaust note, IF they want us to drive four cylinder cars, the car companies should put this crank in their engines to a least give us the v8 sound, as the normal four cylinder sounds like ass.

This engine is certainly something truly different and amazing.
I am a big fan of the new CBRs with ABS, but this engine...
I can't stop returning to this video. I want one.

At the start when I herd it I was coverd in goose bumps,man that sounds good!
greatest thing on earth...
Speechless O.O
Unbelievable sound! Amazing motorcycle.
Vale Rossi y Yamaha la combinacion perfecta!!!
The R1 is an awesome bike, nice Rossi.

0:52 Great Shot!
I'm so getting one!!
had a go on 1 today, what a machine it is ,the sound is unbelievable but sounds different to this video,now i want to sell my bike for one or a kidney if i can
wow ! cool powerslides

AWESOME!
1:33 is awesome! :D
it is only because the exhaust, with Akro pipes it looked not bad at all. I like my 08 alot better though. But id take the motor because of the crankshaft.
i was wondering... does Rossi ever rides a bike outside the track?
Even though he is very good, I would have loved to see Rossi riding the new R1.

i love this motorcycle and i wish i could marry Rossi :D
I don't think that is Rossi riding the white R1. He was probably asked to just do the talking.
Is Rossi Really Driving In That Clip, Or Isn't He??
Think red frame is good something different at last. Thats the colour i've orderd so will be best though!!!
this commercial would be better if Rossy felt something special and told about that to everybody, so you can playin mind how will feel down in your legs and driving it....because that's why all people buys this powerful bikes, for the way they make feel you its power....and try to do more easy to drive motos instead of so powerful, that would make people buy more, because that motos can scare to anyone who's not in the shape to drive them...
VALE ROSSI the best..
no he does not, because it is against his contract, basically if he ever gets hit by car or if some one spitefully want him out they can find him on the road, and there is lots of money on him, so there is your answer all professional dont ride outside of work

Valentino rossi moving do ducati next year, so sad. He made YAMAHA what it is today in MotoGP and also to develop R1 & R6 prodcution class.
I'd prefer Rossi's 2008 MotoGP bike ... please.
Rossi è l'inglese!! lol!! Rossi il TOP!
u so lucky!even r6 is great for me :((
nope ! cause he says "they're are so many fucking idiots on the cell phones" that's a quote from FASTER moto gp documentary. i'm pretty sure the contracts won't let him either.
Very nice....but that red frame is gash!

What´s wrong with the CBR and R1 designers?
Rossifumi
Sounds great. Looks horrid. But must be great to ride.
