Well earlier today I went and got a new 2002 R1, and when I got back I went to paint class, and primered my whole truck, it looks great. I'll post pics of both tomorrow!!!!!!!!!!

6T9PONY · 04-03-2002, 01:09 AM

That bike gives me a hard on....ultimate bike right there....I'd LOVE to get my hands on one of those!

When do you plan on painting your truck?

Can't wait for pics!

nice bike, i miss my harley

Dark_5.0 · 04-03-2002, 09:02 AM

Im not familiar with the R1..... How does it compare with the Hyabusa (spelling) .. Those bikes are very impressive at the track.

Crotch rockets are cool

Congrats,

MTU 50 · 04-03-2002, 02:23 PM

That V-Rod is definitely one of the best looking bikes ever.

Godslayer · 04-03-2002, 02:43 PM

I agree those Hyabusas are nasty hehe...

R1 vs. busa....The R1 is a low 10 second bike..busa' a high 9 second bike. Th r1 weighs in at around 375 dry, the busa weighing in at 480 dry. The busa is more straight line performance, while the R1 is both street, and track, and twisties. It's easier to ride a wheelie on, do stoppies, and it's alot easier to ride, weight wise. R1 makes 152 claimed hp, while the busa makes a claimed 160 ish. The busa makes about 20 more hp. But it weighs 105 lbs more. Busa's just don't do it for me, I wanted a light weight bike, that goes 175ish, and runs low 10's stock. But I really didn't have specs like that, I've had an R1 before, and I have to add, this one is alot better, than my previous 00.

Hethj7 · 04-04-2002, 11:14 PM

Ever since I started riding I have wanted the R1! The new ones are so sweet looking too. My bike (97 FZR 600) is in the shop getting new jets for the carbs. I can't wait to get it back!

WADS56 · 04-05-2002, 01:50 AM

I had to sell my 900rr but i still love bikes. I must say if I were to buy a bike again it would be the GSXR1000. That thing is a monster, and cool looking.

joe4speed · 04-05-2002, 02:50 AM

I've been wanting to upgrade to the ZX-9R for the longest time, but The R-1 has always lookesd good too!! Hmmmm, decisions, decisions!

04-05-2002, 03:10 AM

I had a V-Max 12yrs ago and someone rearended me and scared me off of it. I'm shopping a bike right now and am sold on the VFR800. Its not the fastest bike out there... does this make me a wuss?? It is a strong sport touring bike(with aftermarket exhaust= 100hp+). What doyou guys think??
I would really hate to give up comfort for hp(ok, I'm officially getting old). My next bike(after the VFR) will be a Harley... A Harley Low Rider or wide glide...

Yeah that is what I had been wanting forever, until I rode one. I just like the R1 so much better. The power is real comparable between my 02 R1 and a 02 GSXR1000. My new one feels alot faster than my 00. I'm planning on a full Akrapovic exhaust system, should give me about 15-20hp.+

04-15-2002, 10:53 PM

1bad89, is that the old R1 in the pic? I've been wondering that.. Also, I've had this VFR for a week now and only got on it hard, from a dead stop, twice and the front wheel woobles like well.. I really don't know but I don't like it at all. Maybe the front wheel is out of balance or something.. you have any ideas what it could be?? I'm gonna take it up to the Yamaha shop were I bought it and have them look at it and if they can't fix it without charging I'm going to tell them I want all the money I paid for it applied to a new R1. I've only had the bike for a week..
