Evening all,

Well I have to admit it, I feel I now have a bike that I love.. I am seriously impressed with this bit of kit, my 2009 'Big Bang' R1

I took her in PX of my previous S1000RR (don't fall for the hype) as I wanted a more entertaining yet different bike and with the first twist of the throttle I loved it. Instant acceleration and a sound to fear and love!

Once I find out how to upload pics I will post one.....

Shes only got 2700 miles, 1 owner, private plate, FULL Two Brothers system, DB dark tint screen, tail tidy, yam seat cowl and a set of HID lights (which I wont keep). I intend on doing a few more mods, carbon, power commander/bazzaz, quickshifter, various cosmetic changes etc etc...

So watch this space and let me know if theres a ride or meet in the area!!

Cheers, Dan

Here she is

Welcome in Dan

Bigger pic for ya

Hi Dan and welcome to the forum mate

Welcome to the forum Dan

Welcome in Dan, there's a couple of pink frames guys on here so your not the only gay in the village

haha, like that is it with the 'RED' frame? I personally don't mind it, its different. If it does annoy me (which it probably wont) its nothing a quick spray cant fix!

I't annoys me!!!!..................but only cuz I can't afford one

I strongly suggest you start saving, I never knew how good these things are till now, worth every penny!

To be honest I've spent a fortune on this old girl and I'ts a peach, I will test ride a newer model somewhen but until then mine is the best

Nothing else matters then mate, nowerdays it's about being happy with what suits you. My old s1000rr cost me £10'000, hated it. Admittedly the r1 was a only a bit less but so much better even tho it's cheaper! Go figure..

Welcome to the forum Dan, best bike (but wrong colour) you have there

Enough with the colour, it's my colour

No mate that can't be ours,as he,s quiet .... It's only when he sees someone and then he go's ape ... Plus you would not hear him where you live..... Mods so far on mine are.. Removed the rear pegs gold chain and sprockets,braided brake lines changed a lot of bolts and fixings for stainless ones....de-cat and flash tuned .... Just brought a set of ASV leavers and should be here tomorrow... And there are a few more but can't remember lol.....Now if you want to see a modded 14b Russ should be around and he's got a real modded one ... He's from Lynn as we went for a little run out last night ....

Sounding good mate! Got a few mods I want! Do you fit your own? I've done a few bits myself but never done braided lines and is something I'd like to do. New levers will be needed soon too! Who did your flash tune and what hp you getting?

As for the other chap we will all have to meet up and have a ride out! And a beer at the feathers?

Il pm you my mobile number if you like?
