Hello i have just bought a 2008 R1 in blue with gold alloys. Got what i think is a good deal.

4580 on the clock, with Akra sp series, i think its an official yam double bubble screen, tail tidy,

rear light with built in indicators and brand new corsa III for £6500.

Im coming from a ZX6R 2007 model and have tried two different R1's a 2007 which felt jerky and unresponsive,

and the 2008 that i have bought which was smooth and fun to ride.

Is anyone going to the thundersprint
