Ok we have a lot of threads for other year R1's. :fact
I thought it would be good to have a list of current '02-'03 owners.
There are parts on some of the bikes here that are not available anymore, and it would be good if we had a list of other owners so we could be more available to each other, swap info, and if you want to sell parts.
But If you want to sell parts please post in the "For sale" section. But you can post a link in here.
I'll update the list as people reply. Please PM me so I can add you to the list, just so we can keep the thread as clean as possible.
Post question and I'll do my best to find the info for you.
Thanks all. :thumbup
There used to be a member here with a similar paint job on his bike. I wonder if it was his. I can't remember his user name but some of the other oldsters around here might.
I'm using LED front & back, Gregg's in front & Kellermann in the rear, before that I had Huge Ind billet indicators that were standard bulb type indicators. Don't know if Huge Ind is even still in open :yesnod
first bike ive owned (other than dirtbikes) and its an 03 and i absolutely love it!...had it since 20k and im now rolling over on 30, just did a complete rebuild due to 2nd gear slip and finding out the past owner had nos so i figured why not go through the whole thing since im splitting the case anyways...ill get pics up soon

Actually those are just the lens covers. I wanted to see how bright the lights would be before I used the nightshade on them just in case I found out it was to dark, saved me the possibility of buying another light assembly. With the stock bulbs their not bright enough but when I upgraded to the HID kit I had no problem with the brightness through the covers. As for the 03 haven't decided what I wanna do with it yet, but I do know for sure if I end up with the blacked out lights I will be using the nightshade this time.

The other night I did my final wash of the year, put some stabil in the tank, and put her away for the winter. It sucks but now I get to start on my winter mods.
how long did it take u to do your wheels? i was thinking about doing mine like that as well... just didnt know the proper method or tools/ what grit sand paper or whatever to use
I actually bought the bike with the wheels already done. I'm not sure what the previous owner used to do them. I did take scotch pads to them when I got it to clean them up a bit but that's about it.
Yeah the cold weather sucks. I'm holding out until we get snow. Being originally from L.A. its hard getting used to not being able to ride year round. Pulling the good from the bad is the fact that we can do things we want to the bike during the down time.
Here's a full shot of her I took today. As far as a newer model, I'm not really interested in another R1, what I would consider is a retro cafe style bike, possibly British or Italian :sneaky
has anyone else had the check engine light come on the bike at a stop sign before? earlier today the CEL came on for about 2 seconds then went away... it was really weird, then when i went to go take off i had no power, i was like 3/4 throttle in 1st and the bike was barely doing like 40... i go freaked out, but then at the next stop sign, i took off and it was like nothing ever happened, i had power again and the bike was fine... anyone else had this happen before?
same thing actually happened to me on my 03 about a week ago, I came to a stop and the CEL came on but by the time I staryed moving again it had gone away and did not create any issue...freaked me out a bit though
