Overview[edit | edit source]
RSD R1
Motorcycle artist Roland Sands has recently spent some time with
the Yamaha R1 studying it and finding cooler parts and technologies to implement
on the already mind blowing performing motorcycle.
The result is this one-off Kenny Roberts style colored Performance Machine, as
it says on the rear end, which stands out thanks to the longer swingarm, custom
wheels and exhaust (that must sound crazy).
Now dont get me wrong, I love the design, but I dont know how the bike
performs while braking as, for example, in order to have the front wheel stand
out a brake disc was removed. Also the rider would have troubles seeing anything
in those nice small mirrors.
