Walkaround on both a 1999 Yamaha YZF-R7 and a 2001 Yamaha R1/R7 replica. The R1 had an extensive list of modifications, which can be seen here: www.yamaha-forum.net Video Rating: 4 / 5
could you tell me where to buy a r7 headlight from to fit the r1? as i would like to make my own r71 after seeing yours! it is absolutely stunning. also is your r7 for sale? cheers mate
They only made the R7 one year....1999. Only made 500 of them. They pop up on eBay occasionally, as well as high-end auction/resale sites. Fairly hard to find. Good luck!
@YamahaR1R7 ok thanks for the help. but i swear that the r7 dark green i saw was a 2001 0r 02. it was the same fairings and frame and pretty much same bike than the r1 2001 when they came out with this shark tail light with the tiny little tail light. maybe was a r7 just for the show, but they listed all the extra the bike had and the price for sale. clearly said r7. i even sat on it and took pics. never saw this bike again ever.
i had the chance of buying a R7 a couple of years ago. The bike had about 1500 miles on it and never damaged but the owner had it repainted in Haga colours. I think it was about £9000. The new paint job put me off the bike so i bought a MV F4.
nice work m8.. u have kept dem sooo clean.. u shuld get a meddle for it ;)
