It’s that time of year again to SLAY THE DRAGON and there is NO better event then the ANNUAL R1-forum.com / R6-forum.com DEALS GAP EVENT!

Make sure you tell them you are with the R1 Rally so you get the special rates and so that they put you with us, if there are any problems ask to speak with Toni, John or Debbie or just let me know. They have blocked off a section for us.


We have a photographer that will be working a few days during the event and selling CD’s of the entire event for $25 each. Also Daryl “Killboy” Cannon ( www.killboy.com ) will be on the gap with his staff the entire event! You can always count on Daryl for INSANE pictures!

flooding out?

Just bought a 2007 R1 and before reading the thread on bad acceleration I was getting used to the bike and noticed that when I pulled out of a parking lot and rolled on the throttle hard the bike would almost die out before taking off. Example: lugging out at around 2 to 3 grand and rolling on the throttle hard will almost pull you over the handle bars it cuts out so bad. Is this realated to the thread? Or can I just get that tuned out? And I don't hang out at 2 to 3 grand often but it is just aggravating thinking something might be wrong with a new bike. Have called the dealer but no help there.
