ARGH!!! Fark!!!!!!!!!!!! Noooooooo!!!!!!!

I have just been given the MOST dissapointing news... Tricolores will not land until APRIL! So, that means I either buy an S, and spend 5k on the full system w/ filter and ecu, OR swallow my pride and buy an new R1... or suffer the indignity of riding the fckin barge for a few more months, and NOT doing afterburners :(

Swallow your pride and buy an R1!!!!??????? Fcuk me!! Shame on you for insulting yamaha's!!! Wait for the Deadcati, we dont want you on a jap bike!!!!

I'm sure you'll be happy with the R1... but I'm also sure you'll be looking sideways everytime you see a 1098. :crash :sneaky :crash

BUY A FARKEN S!!!!!!!! Sheesh.... And 5k for an exhaust system?? **** that!:banned: Get a farken slip on with filter and ecu and what more would you want?:dunno How many friggen Ducati 1098 S models do you think you will come across???Not too many.:fact I've seen all of three S model 999's on the road since they've been released so that won't be a problem if that's what you want. Do it,cause you had your heart set on a 1098 and like Gerrod said,you'll be happy with the R1 but you'll always be kicking yourself about not buying the Ducati.:fact Don't be silly,get the S!:thumbup

Just a little curious mate.....You justified the f**k out of buying the barge (R1 hurt your body too much and other reasons that I can't recall) - why buy the 1098 or new R1 (I know they're dead sexy.) when it will probably give you the same problems as you've had in the past.

:iamwithst I think the Deadcati will be far more uncomfortable then the R1 spend all that saved money on the R1.... I reckon it will be a better bike in the end for it.... so what if there is no distinguished bragging rights at the cafe cause is a normal jap bike. woopee.

I was told at the show today that a new full system will only be $1899!

Yes but you have a flame R1... the paint schemes for Aus are shit from what I've seen... I would want the red/black one, not the gay white with red... and every one will buy the black ones Which one? If we get the red... http://i61.photobucket.com/albums/h77/gytr_r1/07r1_red_1_04e438ec.jpg http://i61.photobucket.com/albums/h77/gytr_r1/06_800.jpg

I was told at the show today that a new full system will only be $1899! Um is that $US? I was informed that the full system kit (which includes ECU, carbon slipons, headers and air filter) was $AU5k

Um is that $US? I was informed that the full system kit (which includes ECU, carbon slipons, headers and air filter) was $AU5k Even if it is USD, it's still a hell of a lot cheaper.

Been thinking overnight... and weeeeelll... if i gio the R1 option, i have close to $17k budget (due to price difference) for parts... which would allow me to buy some awfully hot parts...

So long as you take THIS one for a ride Rob...

Could be worse... I had a few drinks the other night to celebrate a court victory... I walked to the corner shop to but some cigarettes (I know, I'm quitting v soon).. It was a really hot night, so I was walking with no t-shirt on, and got stopped by police on the way home.. (They were nivestigating vandals or something)... They could smelll the alcohol on my breat, and ended up - not esorting me home - but putting me in the remand center overnight... Man that place really sucks.. I stilll had no shirt on, and the guy I was celled up with asked what they meant... I thought "what the hell, this could pass some time".. So I offered to teach him a few moves.. Within 30 seconds, 4 big burly cops jumped in the cell and held me down.. I can hold my own, but I had no reason to fight the police officers.. But still (because of my obvious violent nature lol) they held me in remand for like 12 hours... Man that place sucks.. My next cell mate offfered me all kinds of drugs (he even had e's in his pocket) but was at least interesting to talk to... And to top it off, they released me the next morning, in the middle of the city, with no shirt, covered in tattoos.... How the hell was I going to get a cab home? Fortunately the very first cab I hailed stopped, and we had a laugh about the experience...

lol.. fair enuff ;) Yes, I've now officially been "inside" Noo... stop it's too hahahahaha I have a sick and demented mind...

Noo... stop it's too hahahahaha I have a sick and demented mind... I'm somewhat more hardened now... Especially now that I know that it was my "friendly" neighbours that called the cops.... A visitor to their house tried picking a fight with me earlier, but by the time I have ran down the stairs, he had "hidden: inside their security enerance.. I'm currently waiting foir him to rememerge, to teach him some sence,,

fortunately it never came to bloodshed (his)... He came back downstairs (after he had heard the full story) and was extremely apologetic.. We shook hands and called it a night..

Where's the fun in that? :dunno

The problem i face is: I am going to WSBK's in Feb/March. I want a sportsbike to do the trip on cause I intend to do a couple of superbike school days. And I am not doing that on the boat.

And I am not doing that on the boat. ahhh guess what, i might be trailering the 04 over there with a mate. I will let you know closer to the date :) Some twisty rides lined up as well as the track day so you had better get the 'S'.

:lol no I've decided on a black R1, and am throwing $ at it I've emailed Dale McVeigh in the hopes he'll be interested in doing the tuning You've changed. :fact And who in their right mind buys a black bike? :dunno

I originally wanted my 05 to be black, but impatience got the better of me again

List of parts (Stage 1 tune) to be completed by 25th February: Smog blockoffs with dowells Akrapovic full exhaust (YEC factory spec) PCIII or the YEC ECU, depending on whether or not it’ll plug into the stock harness High flow air filter DMVRPM Suspension (Racetech internals front and rear) YEC Clutch springs Ohlins steering damper Carbon Fibre clutch friction plates (Barnett?) Stage II (Pre MotoGP) YEC Cams YEC Valve Spring Set 0.30 mm gasket YEC Light weight rotor YEC Piston set 520 chain and sprocket

nice, but imho swap the 520 chain for some aftermarket rearsets :) Nah I want performance over bling... a nice little street sleeper, with what looks like a set of slip-ons only :p

haha im running the 520 conversion diderv3 but i consider it bling and i wish i hadnt done it i definately never noticed a performance improvement :) Adjustable rearsets that allow you to fine tune your riding position and improve grip arent bling!

Insert one bullshit Bruce tune up list for 07 R1 I've modified your tune list to what it should really be.... List of parts (Stage 1 tune) to be completed by 25th February: Smog blockoffs with dowells -:confused: wtf????? can you tell me what this is in English please? Are you talking about de-ristricting it?:dunno Akrapovic full exhaust (YEC factory spec) - :thumbup PCIII or the YEC ECU, depending on whether or not it’ll plug into the stock harness - PCIII plugs in,pretty sure all power commanders do!:fact High flow air filter - :thumbup DMVRPM Suspension (Racetech internals front and rear) - :thumbup YEC Clutch springs - :confused: Ohlins steering damper - :thumbup Carbon Fibre clutch friction plates (Barnett?) - :confused: Stage II (Pre MotoGP) YEC Cams YEC Valve Spring Set 0.30 mm gasket YEC Light weight rotor YEC Piston set 520 chain and sprocket Apart from the 520 conversion,replace the stage II tune with the following.... One set of race glass in black fibreglass. Lap timer Tyre warmers Race stands Braided lines Rear sets Trailer for motorcycle One piece leather suit A couple sets of slicks Half a dozen Phillip Island track days Stop being a miserable prick stuck in a hole in bum fcuk north...... AND MOVE TO MELBOURNE!:D :thumbup

CF Friction plates - well for less rotational mass... they're lighter than stock I have a response from Dale I'll post in a new thread... he rocks...
