Love this bike

By Charles Thomson(Owner), Sep. 12, 2010

This bike is so fun and the sound of this crossplane crank is amazing. The ride is very sophisticated for a sport bike and I it is comfortable enough to ride for a 1000 miles none stop except for gas. I would recommend to anyone. Read Full Review

bad azz bike!!!!

By jay watson(Owner), Jul. 29, 2009

i have a limited yellow 09 r1. wow! 0 to 150 is like 0 to 60 in a vet. cornering is unreal. it makes you want to fly. just went from knoxville tn to chicago il and loved it! the only way to explain the feel is for you to watch star trek. when they hit hyper space its like being on the r1.
