I'm loving it.
Inspired by the weather forecast (impending rain for next 4 or 5 days) I peeled the R1 from its nice warm home & thrashed the pants off it!!!
Here are a few pics for your delectation :D
Fresh from hibernation and a nice cosy spot inside. Blew the tyres up and she started up 1st time... ah lovely.

Some whirlygigs, apologies for the camera phone shot, nowhere for a camera on the bike! Yes that is snow...

Some observations - 100mph+ in 1st gear (private road obviously), why bother with the other 5. Saw some silly speeds today and I am way impressed.
This bike is far too quick for public roads, and it handles as well as the R6. Oh lordy :thumbup
