Hiya all
Just picked up my 1998 completely remodelled R1 naked street fighter!
Just rode it home from Yorkshire to just outside of Brighton and boy what a bike! I bought a brand new Yammie MT-09 4 yrs ago, so I appreciate a fast naked street fighter but need some help as have a few concerns.
Will have plenty more to this post and would really appreciate your input!
Just want a great weekend, dry weather awesome ride!
Newbie R1 Rider! 😁

I like it, and I'm not usually a streetfighter fan.
As Mike said, wait until Jompy sees it!
