Yamaha R1 44Teeth Budget Bike Battle

Pink, Loud, and Totally Unapologetic

Straight out of the 44Teeth Budget Bike Battle series, this pink-wrapped 2003 Yamaha R1 is the two-wheeled equivalent of a mic drop.

It’s loud, it’s lairy, and it’s completely unbothered by your opinions.

And now – you’ve got the chance to win it.

Wrapped in outrageous custom pink and fitted with a stubby Scorpion exhaust that gargles on the overrun like it’s been drinking petrol and vinegar, this R1 isn’t for shrinking violets.

It’s the first fuel-injected R1 and runs like a dream.

It also comes with some of the most legendary mods from the 44Teeth garage – including Vario bars, a “mostly pointless” steering damper, a bright red emergency 3L fuel can, and (yes) a spade. You know, in case you need to dig your mates out of a gravel trap.

It’s fast. It’s furious. And it’s absolutely mint.
