However, I was in doubt if it had to be an R1 or an R6.
I could start telling you what a great motorcycle the R1 is, but well, you could just read any review as everyone seems to have come to the same conclusion anyway.
And when you want to take it (relatively) easy, the enormous torque which the R1 power plant delivers from low down makes sure you don't have to keep the revs up.
This means that the R1 can do away with the mirror box and prism arrangement of a a traditional digital SLR and hence have a more compact integrated lens / body design.
The Cyber-shot® R1 camera is the world’s first integrated lens digital still camera to combine a professional-grade, 10.3-megapixel image sensor and the flexibility of live preview while shooting.
Furthermore, no mirror and prism construction means that the R1 is a quiet camera, perfect for shooting at a tennis match or in nature without disturbing wildlife.
Ricoh is extremely proud to announce the release of the Caplio R1, a powerful 4.0 megapixel digital camera featuring an innovative lens retracting system that allows an incredible 4.8x optical zoom lens with 28mm wide-angle shooting capability to be stored in a 25mm super slim aluminum body.
Also featuring very fast shutter response and Ricoh’s outstanding 1cm wide macro technology, the Caplio R1 incorporates all the latest high-end features of the digital camera to satisfy even the most discerning professional, while offering user-friendly functionality that is sure to capture the hearts of all photo enthusiasts.
The Caplio R1 can shoot as many as 500 images* between recharges when using the lithium ion rechargeable battery, and up to 200 images* when using AA alkaline batteries.
The team’s suspension partner, Öhlins, has provided the team with the next stage in the evolution of the TTX suspension it used to such great effect in 2006, in what is a never-ending quest to find the perfect set-up from round to round.
Back-to-back tests with increasingly braced versions of the frame and rear swing arm in the build-up to the 2007 season have already underlined the improvements in the standard units fitted to the new R1.
Designed from the outset as the best platform for Superbike racing Yamaha has ever made, the new R1 is already very close to being on target in terms of its output, and has proved even more rider friendly than the fully-developed 2006 machine.
Sony's latest top of the line Cyber-shot camera, the R1 is encased in a fl, body, and is the first to use Sony's new 10.3-megapixel CMOS imager.
The R1 features a Carl Zeiss T* 5x wide angle zoom that is matched to the imager and covers a 35mm equivalent focal length of 24mm to 120mm and has both a manual zoom and focus ring on the lens barrel.
The R1 has both a high resolution color viewfinder and a top-mounted 2.0" color LCD that tilts and swivels to nearly any angle.
The antiquated R1 was used to deduce the optimal layout for the interconnected combs which supported the R2's ECL logic, print the wiring map, and punch the tape which drove the die that would punch the teeth off the combs[54].
The R1 had a single-step mode; at some point, someone evidently got tired of toggling the stepper switch for each and every instruction and connected a crank and cam to it, so that one revolution of the crank would cycle through sixty instructions[58].
The R1 was a fascinating machine; evolutionarily, it spanned a huge range of technologies, from the vacuum tubes used in its initial construction to the high-speed ECL used in its later peripherals.

The new R1 inspires confidence in every part of the corner, and the front end in particular offers such impressive feel that the rider inspired to brake later, turn in harder, and carry more corner speed than at first seems possible.
While the R1 obviously has a somewhat heavier feel than the R6, it feels light for a literbike, particularly during direction changes - the minor weight gain over the previous model is entirely unnoticeable to the rider.
Yamaha engineers faced competing challenges in designing the new R1 motor - as with every redesign, they were expected to build a mill more powerful than that of the previous generation bike, but at the same time, the 2007 model needed to run much cleaner in order to conform to strict new emissions standards.
This new R1 is catering to its specific demographic with an emphasis on satisfying the owners who demonstrate serious pride of ownership and like to spend considerable time at the track as well as on the street.
Be prepared to hang on when twisting the throttle because the R1 now accelerates with authority, and not just at the upper end of it range.
There's more to this new R1 than mondo motor and brakes, so take a deep breath and shake off the goose bumps as we strip her down and look at what's going on beneath the racy new bodywork.
On the old carbureted R1 there was the typical sudden pickup of a set of flat-slides-an aggressive, vivid response that I'll admit to thinking could only get worse when I learned Yamaha had fuel injected the new R1.
With its more conservative steering geometry, the new R1 is slightly but still noticeably heavier to lay into a turn than its predecessor, especially on the brakes where it needs a decisive hand to make it crank over and stay there.
When the first R1 was launched four years ago, I complained bitterly that there was no steering damper fitted; this was a bike fond of doing the shimmy-shimmy shake-shake under power.
The R1 features a full-time ISO display in the viewfinder (and on the LCD) and a separate button right next to the shutter release, which in combination with the rear control wheel allows the ISO to be set simply and quickly, just as with the aperture or shutter speed.
The lens on the R1 is a Zeiss Vario-Sonnar with a focal length range (in 135 terms) of 24-120mm.
But, running the R1 file through Noise Ninja produces a file, which while not quite in the 5D's league with regard to lack of noise, is actually quite acceptable.

When Yamaha first introduced its radical R1 in the late 1990s, it was described as a "no compromises", high-performance sportbike.
At first glance, the styling appears to be a mild evolution over last year's popular machine, but Yamaha had more than a new look in mind with the new R1's bodywork.
The new R1 will be available in the U.S. from November, 2006 at a suggested price of $11,599 for the Team Yamaha Blue color scheme or $11,699 for Charcoal Silver or Candy Red.
As soon as I took off on the R1 I was once again immediately impressed by the tractability of the engine and the strong mid range.
So my experience on the R1 is limited to about 200 kilometres over a period of one year during which I have ridden my ZX-9R.C1 on a daily basis so comparison is easy.
The mid range on the R1 is noticeably stronger allowing for effortless clutch less wheelies in the first three gears whilst the Ninja does them very easily only in first.
