Yamaha R1 R6 Owners Club get together to break world record

On Sunday 27th June 2010, the Yamaha R1 and R6 Owners Club GB will be attempting to break the Guinness World Record for 'Largest Parade of Yamaha Motorcycles'. This is currently standing at 206 bikes and held by the TDM owners club of Italy.

The club would like to invite all owners of Yamaha R series bikes to attend, so that the record that has stood since July 2003 can be broken. This includes owners of R1, R7, R6 or R125 models, of any vintage!

The record attempt will be taking place at Supercar Sunday incorporating Superbikes, hosted by Gaydon Heritage Motor Centre, Gaydon, Warwickshire (CV35 0BJ).

There will be loads to see including Yamaha’s very own stunt rider Dave Coates, abusing his YZF-R1 and the ticket price includes free entry to the Gaydon Motor Museum. Prices are £in advance (contact the owners club or visit Gaydon’s website) or £11 on the day.
