Hello all,
Having been into classic bikes for a long time, un faired, i might add, i have recently purchased an early 1998 R1 in red and white and so looking forward to spending some time behind the fairing, i dont collect it for a couple of weeks so will keep
you updated on my first few weeks of ownership.
Steve

Welcome in Steve
hope you enjoy the 4xv and if you don't like those clip on's there are other options
and you could always return it back to standard if you store the original parts
