Re: R1 4C8 owner new to the forum
Haha i mean't its nothing special compared to some of the bikes on this forum.
No it hasn't been flashed yet but im planning to do it at somepoint this year, but first on my list is finding an exhaust.

Re: R1 4C8 owner new to the forum
Welcome in mate, just wait until you get it flashed change the pipes and decat it, totally different bike then. 4c8's cost a fortune to mod, but the results are well worth it. Ive sold mine but like others miss it and can offer all the help you need.
Tuck in behind me, i'll show you the best place to crash
Stopped drinking, smoking, taking drugs and running sex parties, luckily ive still bikes to corrupt me

Re: R1 4C8 owner new to the forum

Nice roads in Hertfordshire, rode them all in the early 90's old Rx1000 and ZX10, some decent roads north east essex, I am sure Bub and R1ch will guide you.DaveR1 wrote:Yeah its a strange place haha, I am not a massive fan but im getting used to it.
