Another New R1 Teaser Video

  1. I see Yamaha are releasing little bits in a series of videos regarding the new R1 due to be unveiled on 3rd Nov.

    The dash looks quite good but the levers still look like cheap shit. No one seems to have found out if it is still a crossplane or back to normal.

    Its meant to be a rocket so maybe Kawasaki in Bsb/Wsb will have something more competitive to contend with.

  2. Hope it doesnt look like the abortion Kawasaki recently launched
     
  3. It will look exactly like the 1299 as Ducati will copy it again ;)
     
  4. Is that the H2 thing with the 'wings', does nothing for me that.
     
  5. If you rode it you would shit yourself - so it would do something for you. I guess you mean aesthetically? ;)
     
  6. Yeh, aesthetically, Might look better in the flesh. Your right I think you would have to strap yourself on. I bet insurance is easy to find for one of those !!
     
  7. Shame the road going versoin of the Kawasaki is so much more 'normal' at around 200ish bhp but will be interesting to see how much of a torque monster it is and how well the chassis handles it.
     
  8. Looks like a reliable ducati to me
     
  9. I'm sooooo glad I'm too poor to be in the market for a new bike. There's so many I want, by the time I'd have decided something else would be out to change my mind again.
    I hate all those in a position to choose. Sorry, did I put hate, I meant envy, yeah that's it, envy. Honest :Angelic:

  14. Do you think he might be a little menkle? Or should we wait a little longer?

  16. yea.. i'll just get another tinny.. perhaps their idea of a "few" minutes differs to ours
     
  17. I'll load a rolling mock up picture of my project for you to look at in my build thread just in case the DVD is stuck here...
