Oh yeah, it's a 99 R1![]()
Another goddam bike. Jeeze how much do you spend on registations in a year?![]()
2001 RC51!!!
2007 Husky SMR 510 - no longer... blown tranny
Sweet shit, man!!!
Did you grit your teeth and try to look like Clint Fuckin' Eastwood?

Looks Like we are VERY LOYAL to Yamaha, Huh???
Well, I was too Owned a total of 5 Yamahas, and raced several.
One Question, Have you ever ridden a Gixxer 1000 yet?
You'll never go back to an R1 again! LOL!
The TLR is/will be a classic, it's not what it is, it's what it can be. This is why I like it. Ducs are Ducs, and RC51's are OK, but the Tiller has Spirit, where the others do not.
BTW, if I get another stablemate to the Tiller, it will be a Gixxer 1000! Incredible Machine!
Too old to rock and roll, too young to die.
I'm with you there. My TLS isn't the fastest or most comfortable bike I've owned, but its the most fun.....![]()
Ya OBVIOUSLY haven't ridden an R1 then....![]()
I dunno, I think I'd like to try out one of the new KTM's thats commin out, 950cc 75° twin, even lighter and more compact than the TL, put that in a duke, the 640cc single only weighs about 310, I think the LC8 version is spose to weigh about 345

A man without a gun is a subject LETS GO BRANDON
Just so happens I have ridden R1's R6, F4i, interceptors 500's 750's and the 1000. I like the way the Triumph 600 handles, Don't like the new Honda 929 replacement...Ya OBVIOUSLY haven't ridden an R1 then....![]()
Gonna get to try the new V-Strom next week!
The R1 is OK, but It doesn't compare to the Gixxer 1000 as an overall twisty blaster...
Nice to know people huh?
Don't get me wrong..I the R1 is a great machine too, but if you need that extra 5% somewhere, the gixxer 1000 will deliver.
I do like the new R1's silver/black...NICE!

Yes, it will be at stonner stock:o
No, i don't have a picture yet but it's a bone stock red/white bike so it's nothing out of the ordinary:cool
If i wanted a gsxr 1000, i'd go buy one but suzuki's do nothing for me. Not saying anything bad about them but they just don't get my attention, ya kinda know what i'm talkin about don't ya?:cool
Yamaha
Yeah I know.....Your Leathers wouldn't match the Suzuki!

Hey!! Is that an insult?Wanna take this matter up at stonner stock you old fart?
Actualy, i have a red set and a blue set of leathers but they both say Yamaha on them![]()
Yamaha
LOL....That's why I said if you are looking for that extra 5% go with the Gixxer...I'm with R7 on this... I wanted to like the Gixxer 1000 so bad... I tried so hard to like that machine, but I just didn't. The ergos were all wrong for me, seemed less confidence inspiring, and although I was waiting for massive power everywhere, it just seemed a tad faster on the top end.
So, I am picking up my silver/black R1 this weekSee ya at Stonerstock... WoOt!

Jeff, the switch to the 00-01 tail seems to be more work than it's worth so i'll probably just leave it as is. I found out i would have to change the tank as well
Thanks for the offer anyways:cool
