Dad's new 2015 R1... beast of a bike... my R6 stands no chance

I genuinely though that was the track model! That has headlights!? That's insane, I know what I'm trading my r6 in for
 
Its all stock bar some renthal grips. gonna get a tail tidy, braided lines and a nice loud can :D not traded mine in. will sell it private over the next month or so :)

Yea its the mental power one. gonna be fun. traction control etc :)
 
you wont believe the power (you wont have to change down or up much either,unlike on your 600)

but give it six months you'll want something faster haha
 
It finally arrived..

First impressions, It's v small, but comfortable (I'm 6' 1") more like a 600 than a 1000. It has buttons, lots of buttons. The throttle is superb, the gearshift not so much. Cruise control works v well as do the heated grips. The noise it makes.. growling and whining, popping exhaust, just sublime. It was worth the wait. First service booked for two weeks today, then the 9k rev limit is removed, it's fast enough running in! :eek:

Tail tidy and 7x5 plate going on tomorrow.
 
Took a wee ride up to Gleneagles after work. Love it :) Popped into Knockhill and lo and behold there was a Ducati track night too.
