Description : Custom built Yamaha YZF-R R1 with a single sided swingarm hooked up to a revalved Fox Shock. Custom BRC Racing CNC suspension linkage and CNC rear brake bracket & caliper. The engine was professionally built with a ported and polished cylinder head, has a 5 angle valve job, custom dual degreed cams, runs at a 13:1 compression ratio, and carbs were upgraded with a Dynojet Kit. The exhaust was also custom built and converted to an undertail exhaust with Yoshimura dual Slip-Ons. The bike runs great and has 28,000 kms (17,000 miles). The front faring was converted over to a single headlight unit, the rear tail has a custom built undertray, signal lights, and tail light assembly. Graves Motorsports Rearsets converts the shifting to reverse gearing. Stainless Steel Braided brake hoses on the front and rear brake systems. HyperPro steering damper completes the modifications to improve the overall handling of this machine.

This is a very unique bike and is definitely one of a kind. I have a lot of pictures that can be emailed upon request.

The bike was purchased originally for around $12,000 and has another $8,000 into the build. First $6,000 takes it.

Extras : Selling because this beast is a lil too fast for my liking, looking into a 600
Asking Price : $6000

There's no kit for a swap like that...fabrication, measurement, and patience.

Interested in an '00 R1 (sprockets f/r, dynojet kit and pipe - 130 WHP) + cash? My bike would be plenty slow by comparison :) .
