I need to buy a new bike.

I'm leaning very heavily to an R1, but I'm not sure which one to buy.

I'm very tempted to pick up a 2001 R1, if can find one at a dealership.

Should I buy new or used?

Should I try to get my hands on a '02?

If I buy used what year should I buy?

If you can find a 01 you could get a good deal on it,yhe 02 will be here next month.Any dealer who still has a 01
will do what it takes to get rid of it.There are lots of changes from 01 to 02 models,so its what you want to pay.All are great bikes,they are R-1:rock
