Hey guys, I'm new to the site and was wanting to introduce myself. I go tomorrow to pick up a blue and black 06' R1 with 5700 miles on it, I'm hoping to learn a lot from you guys about the R1 and what vendors have the best prices. I started out on a 04' GSXR 600 and decided to step it up to a R1, I ain't much into the wheelie popping or stuntin', just to respect the R1 and enjoy the ride. I'll try post some pics up tomorrow but for the goodies that the owner has done: hindle exhaust, vortex clip ons, goodridge stainless steel brake lines (front and back), pilot powers 2ct, agv? Levers, power commander and I'm sure I'm forgetting stuff. A good cleaning, fresh oil change and small maintenance is the first on my list
I plan to modify and buy different parts to suite my taste. Are there any problems that I should be aware of that the R1 may have or tinkering that I should do?
I was wanting to upgrade the exhaust to the Akrapovic EVOII exhaust, but noticed that most vendors only sell for 07-08? But any suggestions you guys would have would be appreciated.
