Hi Guys. I've been having a look around for a while now and I'm going to have a look at an R1 tomorrow. I've been riding bikes for a few years on an of. I ride a Ducati and just feel a need to get an R1. I'm in to cars and sea fishing and I've got two Jack Russell's that need a lot of walking. And in between all this I have to go to work. I'm a window fitter and have been for 32 years so well and truly shot. Probably be asking loads of things in the future. Cheers .

Welcome to the forum Steve, great opening post
and cracking name too boot
, I think, Steve, Stevie, ste and Stephen or Steven is the most popular name on the forum
Good luck on your hunt for your R1 you won't be disappointed whatever model you choose, they are all great bikes for different reasons.
Our forum is more like a community, people are mostly friendly, those that are not have been muzzled
, the guys are very knowledgable and like nothing more than helping people out, that's what makes this place such a fantastic place to hang out and talk about biking and whatever other stuff we are thinking about at the time.
So welcome
Stephen

I'm looking for a nice lava red one around the 2004 to 2007 plate. I've herd some realy nice story's
so far from sellers with these bikes. The last time I heard this many story's
was years ago when I was looking for a RS Cosworth.one will turn up I'm sure .

Hi Colin. Yes I did find the RS in the end. I lost count how many I looked at and I've never known a car come with so many story's . And that was going back a few moons. I'd hate to think what it's like now trying to find a nice one.
