If you dont want to sound stupid, dont say anything ! Really, explain how an R1 is better? an R1 will take a TL 1000r. They stopped making those bikes for a reason. Before shooting your mouth off to someone, you better know who your talking to first; in which this case, you don’t. ---

The R1 that rankin had wasnt in great condition, and in my opinion was a beat ass bike with a number of things wrong with it. Going by the conditions of the bike I would take the TL1000 way before the R1. Dont think i’m biased against the R1, I own the same bike trust me I love it, I wouldnt trade MINE for it, but i would of traded rankins And also, relax im sure if we meet in person we would get along just fine, I’m only going by your posts which have seemed to be really negative and useless, dont take it personal, but I think you can agree you could of said what you said in a much nicer way… ---
