yes she is freegin nice kinda scarry at first. the power takes you by surprize even though I can't take her above 7000 till she has at least 1000 miles on her so I am just cruising her. its still quite the ride. any questions and comments are welcome and new pics will be put up when I bring her home she is siting in my mother in laws garage since it snowed here and I didn't want to ride 450 miles in one day in to a snow storm on a bike.

Go big or go home. I had a 98 R1. Those bikes rock. Nice pickup. Smoke the windshiled, and get the titanium exhaust that exits under the seat. Oh, and polish the rims and frame. You've got a lot of work ahead of you, now get busy.

Modding your bike is just as addictive as your modding your car. I would highly reccomend some frame sliders. It is almost garanteed that it will fall over at some point in time. When it does happen they will be worth every penny. Also no matter how tempting it is to ride a wheelie or do a stoppie or go double the posted speed limit, it is just not worth it. Ride safe, keep it looking good and pick up some girls and it will be the best money you ever spent.

Everybody I know at work that rides a bike, has both a scar and a story to tell...

I know they are fun, but I agree with what Wade said... even more so on a 1000cc bike.

One of my buddies had an r1 for a couple of years, the thing looks amazing just sitting there. I've been thinking about getting a bike for the longest time, but its thoughts like the ones above that stopped me from getting one. I do enough dumb stuff in a car, i'll leave the bikes for someone with a little more self control. Nice color choice by the way. have fun with it and ride safe

if you want the ultimate 1000cc bike, then you should have went with the new GSX-R1000, its faster than the busa and only .01 seconds behind the zx-14 in the 1/4 mile. the new GSX-R1000 is an amazing bike. i was thinkin about getting a bike this summer. gas mileage is also a bonus with a bike

Did you ever ride a bike before man? A 1000 is crazy for a first bike. I just got a 750 gsxr and its my first but im taking it very slow.



Re: my new toy
Wednesday, April 11, 2007 5:52 AM
even a 750 might even be pushing too big for a first timer. 600cc is a great size for a first timer plus they can still be fast as hell. y start out with a r1 anyways. your gonna lay it down and then wish you would have started on a crapier bike than that. i can garauntee you will lay it out at least once, especially an R1 for a beginner

nice man but i hope that isnt your first bike. Please be careful we just lost a local rider we dont need to lose more.


I have been riding for a while and i dont see the point in a 1000 but i guess every one is diff. I've got over 14000mi on my 03 gsxr 600 and im still so happy with it. I think my next bike will be a gsxr 750 with all the goodies

RIDE SAFE BRO!

be careful. i understand the appeal of the liter bike, but seriously, be careful. there was a story not even a month ago, new rider, brand new gsxr 1000, 50 feet out the dealer door and into a brick wall. so be @!#$ careful. no insurance aand a totally broken, not just cracked but the entire weld broke, frame. it would be a shame to see that red beauty go down cuz of in experience. take a riding course and LEARN. do not try to "keep up" that just gets you dead, literally. all i can say is read and learn and take your time, don't be @!#$in around tryin wheelies and @!#$, learn the bike first. and i'm sorry to say but your prob gonna drop it, its just a fact of life
