Hi all,
I actually joined a few years ago when I was buying a 14B, unfortunately turned out to be a scam and never materialised!
Anyways fast forward a few years and I've had my 4c8 for just over a year.
Few bits and pieces done to it, absolutely love this bike, it's impossible to get bored of it.
Always found forums useful so might see me asking a few questions here and there.
Chris

Welcome back Chris, the 4c8 IMHO is the best looking R1 Yamaha ever made.
Any questions, just ask, most of the guys n gals on here are quite knowledgeable about everything bike related, plus lots of other stuff too...
Welcome back

Totally agree with this, this bike does not look like a 13yo bike, it's still one of the best looking bikes out there in my very biased opinion!

Nothing major. Cosmetically - ASV levers, brake lines, carbon hugger, belly pan, infills and exhaust cover. DB screen, domino grips, tail tidy, flush indicators. Performance - Akrapovic cans, decat, k&n, and my newly flashed ECU will be with me tomorrow!
Realistically I probably won't do much more now. Just spending my time replacing fixings and stuff so they are all nice and shiny

The exhaust and flash are the big ones
