Re: My 2008 R1

If an R1 was available to me I personally would not have chosen red.... However, after seeing yours, that metallic red actually looks rather fetching!

Oh your right, it is a Honda forum, and a off topic forum and a religous forum and a Aprilia forum and a Ducati forum and a YAMAHA forum.... ect. I think you get it.

Re: My 2008 R1

Sorry, I didnt mean to seem so upitty. Some folks seem to realy feal this forum is solely for Hondas. Forgive me for assuming you feel that way.

Re: My 2008 R1

I like the red. Ive been riding an 07 red for 3 days now. Im so used to the 954 that the R1 has no power for me on the bottom. Hadnt really had any road feeling the top end yet.

Re: My 2008 R1

I like that red colour, looks good on the R1. That model looks sooooo much better than the dog's dinner they released this year, IMHO.
