I sold my R1:banghead:
I don't really remember how it happened, but i ended up with a ZX. It's a cool bike, and goes like a rocket, but it sure isn't the R1. It's a boat compared to the r1, but handles alright around town and on the clover leaves. I never got a knee down, so the handling loss isn't too dramatic for my skills. The biggest downer is the exhaust, two gigantic silver cans, that give me no sound. my R1 had some parts and sounded awesome, it's almost hard to tell what rpm i,m at with this thing. I pulled the flies already, and my pc3 will be here tomorrow or wednesday, so the low end will be what you'd expect from a 1349, it was weak under 4.5k.
I don't think it's seller/buyer's remorse, as much as just a deep longing for the raven R1. The r1 was my first bike(i know), and i really will miss it. I think i'll just have to drag the zx, and buy another R1:epimp
