R1 has big bang firing order, same ole YTCC YICC crap and got uglier...I hope I can find a close out GSXR1000. All the new liter bikes look like crap. The new black and gold R6 is the pick o the yammies...The green and black CBR600 makes me think Monster Energy Drink and teh Blue White CBR looks like the old Konica Minolta GP paint scheme...

I'm gonna wait til I see the new R1 in person. I didn't like the new body R6's when they came out, but when I saw it in person, I loved it.
Where the fuck is the intake on the R1, in the head light bucket area?

Thats what it looked like to me. I dont see anywhere else it could be. Tried to do the 360 view to look at it head on, but that's not working yet.

Electronic damper and weird suspension internal setup.
In keeping with this machine’s exceptional cornering ability and crisp handling, the all new aluminum frame has been designed to offer exceptional rigidity balance. The rear frame is now lightweight CF die-cast magnesium, contributing the optimum mass centralization. Suspension includes new SOQI front forks which use one of the tricks developed for our winning MotoGP bikes: independent damping. The left fork handles compression damping and the right side handles the rebound damping. And the rear shock adopts new bottom linkage for optimum suspension characteristics. Want even more? For the first time, R1 comes standard with an electronic steering damper. Intake: The side fairing is smoother for a sleeker appearance. And, instead of the usual four bulb headlight design, the ’09 model now has only two projector-type bulbs mounted closer to the nose of the bike. |
