Nice upgrade.  Huge difference in throttle. Be careful

Ya I'm riding it around in the evenings/weekends getting used to it. Fairly alright on it now, still having some issues spinning the back wheel slightly getting going from stopped.

Still going to be riding the GS to work cause all my luggage fits that and the R1 isn't real fun in peak hour traffic unless you like roasted nuts.

Launch it 100% clutch with no throttle a few times.  You'll get it super smooth after that.


I also like the dust-red frame, looks good!

I forgot to mention I have a R1 in the shop Im painting for a guy now too. Also cutting his Yoshi shorter and adding LED lights behind his fairings. Great bike.
