Welcome in Dan , great choice of bike. If you are into modding then I trust you have plenty of spare cash as bits for our 4C8's aint cheap and are pretty hard to come by, there are a few on here who have spent a fair few quid and still counting

Thanks
Not going to be buying much for the r1.
probably just a double bubble, maybe some cans. they are expensive though i know. My mate has an 05 model and modified the standard exhausts with a kit he bought for £100. it sounds really good too. so might see if i can find something similar.
My dad will be riding this as well though.

I have some which I may consider selling as I now have Yoshi Carbon slash cuts.
Kit is A&R race fitted to good condition cans, they are loud that's for sure

Welcome Dan, you have some good roads out your way, I often end up on the moors. I'm guessing you do the races at Olivers Mount as well.

Yea, Scarborough - whitby - Pickering road is pretty good. Thats the usual lap.
And the mount is good then its a nice day. If its raining its a bit of a mud bath haha.
