Anyone familiar with Jamie James R1 productions? I met a guy about a month ago at a motorcycle dealership/bike night promotional event. This older guy had a Jamie James R1 (05 if I'm not mistaken) said it was the one featured on the magazine cover back then, said he was a mechanic and friend of Jamie's. We sat and talked forever it seems, man this guy had some stories, he had also been drinking and you could smell it on this breath, so at the time I was skeptical about some of his stories and accolades, but found out later that evening that he was legit, can ride the wheels off a motorcycle. I can't remember his name, google Jamie James R1 and there's a nice story about the bike being tested at the Gap. Bike is like 405lbs WET, carbon fiber wheels etc....
