Awesome.....The tail still needs help, but that's easily fixed. A lot better looking than the Repsol, IMO. In fact who would buy any 1KRR over an R1, knowing that the R1 has a crossplane engine with a totally unique feel? The R1 sounds like secks with exhaust, while the Honda just sounds like any other I-4.

That reminds me, look what my riding buddy did to relieve himself of the thigh roasting nature of the '09 R1...

BTW if anyone was really going to get into club racing they'd get a 600, a 400, or a twin. Liter bikes are only useful on the street IMO, unless of course you are a pro racing in Superbike. |

I know a number of club racers that started on liter bikes and a few that started on 750's. OT: I'm diggin' the Yammie replica.

Whatever floats their boat. Pretty much the only reason to do that is if they want to use their street bike and don't want to buy a track-only bike. But they're kidding themselves if they think it's an optimal learning curve to start racing on something like that.

![]() Pony up the money and take it to someone who actually knows how to dyno, and get rid of the flat spots if it has any. Pretty simple. ![]() Last edited by Homeslice; 09-09-2009 at 12:34 PM.. |
