Welcome to the forum Karl, the Big Bang R1’s sound amazing, I’ve had three of them over the years. They are a big bike, heavy and need strong counter steering to get them into a corner... but wind on the power when she is tipped in and you can feel the rear tyre bite into the road. I found them a very rewarding bike to ride and by far the best soundtrack of any road bike.

Enjoy your new toy

Stephen
