Thanks for the welcomes guys..
@irish-r1 I pass through tullamore often enough with work but prob a bit far for a spin :D

Here's a photo soon after I got her, bought in Dublin and maiden voyage was about 170miles home, a buddy had said before that on a sportsbike everywhere is at 100miles an hour, I can see his point now.. Coming from a z750 naked I felt any speed, on the R1 though it's effortless

The bike had less than 7000km (about 4500mls) when I bought it, the guy went a bit mad with stickers though, I've removed most and i've changed the white mudguard to original and added an r&g tail tidy, no pics since though

Wow she looks beautiful, the 4c8 is by far the best looking R1, enjoy your new toy, ride safe and any questions just ask, someone will have the answer.
