Evening all. New to owning an R1 and can't wait to get some proper riding on it......wrong time of year to change bikes, but the right time for a decent deal. 2013 in Tech 3 livery with an Austin Racing system.....sounds and looks great.....( I will try to upload a pic)
After time on a Green Machine, then a GSXR I've crossplaned....
I think the bike needs a flash and I would like a QS on it so will probably be asking some questions on the relevant pages.....any help very welcome.

Welcome aboard mate, nice previous bikes!
I'm sure you'll enjoy the new bike, are the panels original painted Yamaha jobbies or after market?. It's worth checking to see what your paying for!

Welcome to the forum Wiggy , cracking Big Bang R1 you have there, love the colour scheme.
She will definitely benefit from a flash, don’t act MikeR1 on here, he is the expert. Coming from a GSXR you will notice the snatchy throttle but the flash will sort it.
The bangers are an amazing bike and the sound from the thump thump of the engine to the deep burble of the exhausts with the pop and bang thrown in is pure music [emoji3].... I loved and now miss the sound of mine [emoji20]

Wiggy if you click on resize for 17inch monitor you'll get a decent sized picture instead of the thumbnail
Your sausage looks great

That's a bit different for a 13 banger - lovely
Welcome in matey and pray for a few crisp dry days to give her an airing.
Love the translogic QS on my 13. Defo a flash if she's still snatchy and a graves clutch mod is a well spent 70 quid too.
