Mischa's 06 SP Build


If my Englisch sucks, its because im from the Netherlands.

Ever since i was a little boy, i was in love with the Yamaha R1.
Bought a 04 a few years back, now there is almost 70.000KM on it.
So time for something new.

Especially the 04-06 model is my favorite.
Afther a long search i found a 06 SP with only 10.000KM on it.

This bike wil be the base for my build.
Im going to try to build the, in my eyes, perfect R1.

There were 500 made for this model, only 20 came to the Netherlands.

This is number 296:



The big plus on the SP is that it already has the front and rear Ohlins suspension and the gold aluminium Marchesini rims.
Thats going to save me a lot of money, because i dont have to buy them!

@NoExpert
Cool!
Somewhere between Brussel and Rotterdam is a place we call the playground.
Youll find a lot of bikes racing there.
When u are here u are more than welcome to check out my bike there!

Hi, nice bike.. tasteful mods just like mine.. although I'd like to ask, have you done any engine work to the bike such as valves adjustment, throttle bodies adjustment, cylinder head port polish? I'm doing those on mine along with a full engine gasket replacement because it is a 10yr old bike after all, maybe you had done it on yours cuz I'm really curious what the difference is like before and after.
