New R1 owner

Post by Awksey »

Hi All,
I'm a new R1 owner. The bike is a 2016 Anniversary R1 which I intend to use mainly on the track.

Currently experiencing difficulties starting the bike which I have posted details already in the workshop section without introducing myself here first.

Looking forward to discussing anything track and technical.

Will post some pictures of the bike once its running properly.

Cheers

I'll skip the cake but I could do with a scarf..its taters out there :lol:

I guess the R6 is actually a bit of clutter until you can successfully throw a leg over it again!

All the best for a speedy recovery...... now, about that scarf :lol:
