Re: New R1 owner
Sounds bloody lovely!
Didn't have too much of a blast, just wanted to get used to it, moving from a 600 that i've have for 5 years its a fair difference! That being said did spin the rear up under acceleration and get the front in the air over taking some cars so not a completely sedate ride ...

Thing is, i've got the Drive from Essex to Yorkshire.. Pick up the R1 and a Yam of a completely different kind that my dads bought (XVS1300A Midnight Star), then Yorkshire back to Essex.
Hope the weather's alright and im not completely shattered to go for a little ride in the evening!

Re: New R1 owner
It is a little under-powered but for most green laning it's fine, benefits from an after market exhaust and a slight gearing chane. Only issue I really come across is the comparative lack of ground clearance and its a bit heavy when you compare it to the full blown CRF250X or a KTM etc..
