Hi All,
Been an R1 owner for a few years now and only just found this forum...
Started with an immaculate 5PW R1 that I absolutely loved but destroyed after doing 20,000 miles on it ...
Now have a lovely 5VY R1 that has had a few bits done on it and is used for commuting, summer days and track days but is cherished
Yamaha R1 14B, Honda Fireblade CBR1000RR.

He will be on some forum somewhere soon, I think he has just bought a new house which probably needs a good clean
