sanjay Posted May 18, 2006 Share Posted May 18, 2006 Hi, I am new to R1 although not new to bikes. I have been riding a R6 for some time now, but recently shifted to R1. The model is 05 (2nd hand )done about 3000 km's. I wanted to know from experienced people the following. 1- Why does R1 have more mechanical sound from the engine than R6. 2- Why is the engine of R1 so rough at low rpm's as compared to R6. Is the mechanical noise / roughness normal or there is something wrong with the bike. Best regards, Sanjay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best regards, Sanjay Mine is the same, I ran a R6 for the last 3 1/2 years bought a 02 model R1 this year and this is really noisey @ low rpm. Dealer told me they are all like that.
