The weather finally broke in Northern CA this weekend for me to get the new R1 out on the road and try her out. Very impressive! The bike handled awesome, sounds good even with the stock pipes and the engine was unreal...On my 98 the way I would roll on the throttle, the bike would just accelerate on out of the corner and with the new bike it broke the rear end loose a couple of times. the power is just awesome....More to follow.....
