Hi Beaker, welcome to the forum, the Big Bang R1's have an awesome sound track, very intoxicating, they are a great bike but can take some getting used to, however once you have they are bloody fantastic [emoji3]

Welcome

Stephen [emoji3]

Hi, welcome to the forum.
Hope you enjoy the R1, it is very different to the Gixxer 750.

Welcome in mate, looking forward to seeing the photos. What kind of bike history do you have.

Have a great time here, take a good look around you will see this is a family more than a forum ;)
