Thank you everyone. I will definitely respect it, and don’t intend to ride it into the city.

Been waiting a month, glad wifey could keep me patient enough to hold out a bit longer. I was about ready to buy a S1000RR last week.

Doesn’t look that special to me.

Probably what...an 11 second bike



:)

I know nothing about bikes, but have heard R1s are nasty. Be safe.

Except the modern ones have ABS, wheelie control, endo control, traction control, power level control, etc.

This one has all of that, but I fell in love with the All LED Display

Ditto. Those bikes let you know you're alive, but also want to kill you. I quit riding before my luck ran out. Be safe on it.

Agreed. I loved riding my sport bike, but it was only really fun if I was pushing things a little. I swear I scared myself at least once every time I went out. Lol

I eventually sold my bike to a co-worker. He picked it up on a Friday night and totalled it Sunday morning. Thankfully he landed in a field and wasn’t seriously hurt. I honestly feel like I dodged a bullet.

Congrats and enjoy.

Just remember it's hard for a car to hit you, the faster you're going.

Nice pick up, they are amazing machines.

Track season (except for Jennings) is coming to an end, but you should bring it out next year!
