like...that they don't make the red one any more, that people thought the black was a limited and it wasn't
dislike...when people tell me they "have a buddy with a bike just like mine, well except for the pipes being under the tail"
Dunlops
that exhaust costs twice as much as anyone else's
ummm that's a few for now

I have a 05. I dont really like the shape of the seat, how it looks kinda like a heart. I dont like how everything is either black or body color except for the rear pegs, rearsets and levers. But I do like how the gauges are oriented. It took some time for me to like the taillight. I also think the body lines are just beautiful, mostly the tail and the tank.

But the yama seat is a lazy-boy compared to that of a 1000rr honda,THOSE things suck.

i see u have a 012 tires:thumbup :thumbup i have the same very good tire love them more then the 014

my combination is 12 rear 14 front :thumbup what presure r u using
I absolutely love them. Feel rock solid to me!

I run 36PSI front, 38PSI rear, 32PSI and 34PSI for trackdays (which i have not been able to do on this bike yet, 6 weeks and counting :D )

Had dunlop, and michelin(sp), and i am no tyre expert, but i just think these tyres 'feel' better.

:boobies Bridgies :)

Hardtokill, I was talking to a guy from LI right after I got my R1, at Marcus Dairy. He had the Devil Carbon fiber slip-on and he loved them. He told me that he was on this forum. It was a black R1.
About all I know. They did look nice -- well almost as nice as my Microns :)
