This is all opinion....and since I've had the blue, then silver......I'm going red fo sure this time. It's the loudest color for sure but to me the new silver is too dark overall.
I had a blue and got a red in 04. Still think the red for 07 is :boobies . There defineatley needs to be some better graphics and colors in the future. This is getting old. May have to switch up brands.
I have the red one now,back in 2004 when i bought it every one was looking for the blue or silver one. so i used that to get a special deal on the red one.I am thinking of the silver one this time eventhough red is the best looking color.
peel the graphics off the blue side fairing, and to me it's a toss up b/n blue and red. since my first yamaha was blue (and still have it after 4 1/2 years), i'd personally prob go w/red.
The 04 silver R1 was the best looking R1 in my opinion. So get any color and replicate the two-tone silver from the 04. That would be so sweet looking.
I am going to wait to see what colors come out for 08 and if nothing good then I will probably get a left over 07 and do the two-tone silver on it:riding :rock
Love the Euro color , so im gonna buy the cheapest US color ( blue ) and im gonna get it custom painted exactly like the red Euro version , and with some second look seat skins it's gonna look :boobies !
