Re: R1 4xv

hi there and welcome,

i have the 4xv, awesome bikes. like has been said, watch the exup valve, can be a b1tch.

as for the red paint, i don't know if you can get it in spray form but under the rear seat ...

Re: R1 4xv

Hi Rob and welcome to the forum mate, nice looking 4XV you got there. I'd get yourself a steering damper if I was you.

I'll see how it goes but I know what you mean as i've already had a couple of wobbles under hard acceleration :lol:
