I love it.

 

if you imagine it without that hunk of plastic hangin' down...it's pretty badass...

 

Dude, I have to know where you got that picture from. I have not seen that one anywhere. Are you holding out on us. Do we have to check your garage?

 

looks like the 03 1k gix if you ask me.......but I still like it!!!

it seems like all the new 04's have molded themselves to look like the r1!!

Where did you get the picture??????

 

yea I love the tail mainly because building a slip on for it will be cake. very easy.

 

Better angle

In all fairness, this is a much better angle of that big ol' tail

 

Hooligan.... Do you work for Yamaha? That looks like you just shot it.

:iamwithst

 

Come on Hooligan give us some info!!!!!

 

Spill the beans dude.

 

it's okay..it would've been better if they integrated the turn signals (i.e. Aprilia).

 

Unfortunately, I do not work for Yam, just good sources on the net.

 

hrmm what kinda fender eliminator will work with these beast?
built in blinkers in the tail?

 

I wish they took the stupid ass chain guard off before taking the pic's. It's spoiling my view of that awesome swing arm.

"New pics of 04 R1...)

 

the 04 R1's tail as well as the rest of it > any other bike I have ever seen.

Obviusly something has to eb done with that nadty shovel tho... I dunno where is a goo place to put the license plate to clean up the tail... I'll have to see when I get it

 

:boobies the arse end is one of the baddest I've ever seen!! :rock

 

Hate the humungous fender, but that can be taken care of easily enough.

Love the dual under seat exhaust.

Fairly indifferent on the tail light, but think I like the 02/03 better.

I think a single oval can (sideways) would be hot. Like Arata

The pipes make it look fat. I wonder what kind of integrator kits will come out for that taillight.

 

Other people on sportbikes will link that tail with the R1.
Cause they will keep on seeing it as they are being passed.
It will burn in their minds and stun them at first.

 

that pic gives me a good idea of where im gonna cut that big ugly sail off at though!
