Evening all,
Figured it was time to sign up as I've read the forum a few times.
Already noticed pod is on here.
Only had my bike since August and had an R6 5eb before that and the gsxr was my first big bike.

Welcome to the site Adam beautiful R1. I think your slow steady approach is sensible, get used to the bike and build up your skill

Enjoy

tbf he treated it well :) he knows how to wheelie, so chain sprockets and fork seals etc would be uneffected
i think he only got a couple of runs down the strip that day (i didn't go to the rwyb due to work)

Don't suppose you got anyway of contacting him?
Or not about at the moment means he can be contacted after a certain amount of time?

Cant be contacted for a certain amount of time would be the best description
If you have any questions about the bike pm me, I might be able to help with any questions ?
