Hi from Banchory
Hi Guys,
Recently the proud owner of an 07 R1 which came with K&N filter and de-cat pipe. So far I've made up a set of 65mm straight through baffless slip ons for it (sounds the dogs bollocks!) and when I get back home from offshore, just have to get the ECU flashed by Velox, then we're good to go, job done.
Looking forward to spring to try it out properly!
Cheers, Mr J

Re: Hi from Banchory
Lindsay,
Your bike is a beautiful colour. What is it about blue R1's they just look great, I have only ever had one blue one, mind you they look great in almost any colour.
Beautiful looking bike and thanks for posting the pics
