				Hi Rick
Is it an 07 or 08 paint scheme  

  I hope you have deep pockets as bits for the 4c8 are a tad expensive. Damo still has a few nice bits for sale so he may be worth a shout. Any questions ask away as there is a wealth of knowledge (not necessarily bike related) on here

				Welcome to the forum Rick, you have certainly found the right place to talk R1 nonsense  

 , seriously though, any questions just ask, the guys are very knowledgable and helpful too boot. Post some pics when you pick her up, we love pics on here. Join in the banter, have a laugh and enjoy your R1 when you pick her up  
 
Welcome
Stephen

				Cheers everyone, am getting excited now, got my street triple all ready today for the ride up to get the R1 (400 mile round trip) can't wait to get back on a 1000 again, I believe it's a 2008 colors in the red and white as it has the red front mudguard not white? I will post some pics tomorrow once I get up there, my eBay watched items is getting fuller by the hour lol, currently thinking about a decat pipe, A&R baffle kit and a ecu flash? And plenty of carbon fibre as and when money allows
