Hi all hust bought a 2000 year r1 at the weekend paid what i think is a reasonable price not a bargain but not too cheap either,other current bike 1999 kawasaki zrx1100 retro muscle style bike looking forwards to a tad drier weather to get some miles under my belt,bike is very clean for year and just over 19,000 mls 4 owners must admit got a pleasant surprise at the build qaulity of the bike

almost honda like certainly better than my rex bog standard other than a trioval yoshi endcan. Oopsy should add pics to follow probably this afternoon.

i was and still am very impressed with my 4xv , it always puts a smile on my face
if your changing the oil FFS DO NOT i'll repeat DO NOT use the torque setting of 42nm for the sump plug as shown in the service manual & the haynes manual its a country mile out , just do a search on here & read the woe's
