Whats the first mod you will do to your bike? For me it will be adjustable rear sets for trackdays and a little extra room for the road riding then a slip on when they come out.

I thought this r1 did come with a damper am i wrong? If i am then i will buy that with the rear sets. Im not too curious about the full exhaust. I think the power will be more than enough for me.
No R1 comes with a factory damper,except for the 04 coming out.

For me its gonna be the fender eliminator, followed by exhaust (either scorched micron high mount or devil shotgun highmount), steering dampener, flush mounts, then alarm. After that ?!?!?!

Frzme sliders and flush mounts/fender eliminator, then a pipe, then possibly a steering damper if the stock one sucks like the Gixxer's, then seat cowl and other stuff.

Fender kit & signals tank protector (once it scracthed) then exh. , pc III. I better stop :yesnod :hellobye

for me, it's probably gonna be an Ohlins or Penske out back along with a fork job(probably Traxxion) on the front...then probably braided lines, damper and then hopefully and Arata or Akra slip-ons....

the first 15 minutes I have mine, Im painting the windscreen, removing the rear fender and putting the plate up under the seat, removing the mirrors.

hopefully someone will come out with a titanium piece that will replace the catalyst. Ill also have frame sliders as soon as someone makes a set

Ill wait a few weeks and see what the exhaust mfgs come up with before buying a full system

right off the bat gonna hit the forks, like QuikMike traxxion will prolly do them, maybe LE. I'll get an akra or arata full system when it comes out, PC3R with that as well....other than that rubber, rubber, rubber, cause i'm gonna be riding the piss oughta this bike!

Oh, a penske will be in the works too, as soon as one comes out ;)
