This 2020 Yamaha R1 is a superb example of Yamaha’s flagship superbike, finished in striking blue and showing just 3,164 miles. Designed with direct influence from Yamaha’s MotoGP programme, the R1 delivers uncompromising performance, advanced electronics and race-bred handling, making it an outstanding choice for both road and track-focused riders.

At the heart of the R1 is Yamaha’s iconic 998cc crossplane inline-four engine, renowned for its strong, linear power delivery and distinctive sound. Producing thrilling performance across the rev range, it is paired with a lightweight aluminium Deltabox frame to deliver exceptional stability, precision and feedback at speed. Fully adjustable KYB suspension front and rear ensures confidence-inspiring handling, whether riding briskly on the road or pushing on in more demanding conditions.

The R1 comes equipped with an advanced electronics package as standard, including a 6-axis Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) that governs traction control, slide control, lift control and launch control, helping maximise performance while maintaining rider confidence. A bi-directional quickshifter allows seamless clutchless upshifts and downshifts, while selectable riding modes enable the bike’s character to be tailored to suit rider preference and road conditions.

Braking is handled by powerful twin front discs with radial-mounted calipers, supported by ABS for controlled and confident stopping performance. The aggressive aerodynamic bodywork, inspired by Yamaha’s racing machines, enhances both stability and visual appeal, reinforcing the R1’s true superbike credentials.

This particular example has been fitted with R&G crash bungs for added protection and a tail tidy to sharpen the bike’s appearance, while remaining otherwise standard. With low mileage and a reputation for thrilling performance and cutting-edge technology, this Yamaha R1 represents an exciting opportunity to own one of the most capable and respected superbikes on the market.

At CMC, all our bikes undergo a 37-point pre-delivery inspection, including a fresh oil and filter service unless recently changed. If the bike has less than six months MOT, we will put a new one on, giving you complete confidence when buying from CMC.
