I seriously want the new R1 now, it looks like my almost ideal bike. just put some aftermarket pipes on it, a fender eliminator and flushmounts or integrated signals in the mirrors like zuk did, and it'd be my ideal machine. seriously, I love that bike.

it looks like the bastard child of OSP.

You see my thread about the crossplane crank yet? It breaks it down even more.

I don't know about all that. I'd have to see them line up with simillar mods, simillar weight riders, etc. I still think in a straight line the Busa or ZX-14 will own most liter bikes.

gixxer1k's k5 handles itself quite well against the 500lb crowd. Im sure current gen litres are similarly nasty with it

the new liters are alil quicker than the busa/zx14 in the 1/4

til u start moddin em. the bigger bikes handle a extra 60 70 hp alot better than the liters, easier to ride with the extra weight and length.
