maybe run me on my 07 R1 :gotme:

edit: fyi im on vacation till august 1st.

OT: How do you like the 07? Have you ridden previous models? I was at a local dealership looking to trade in my 06 R1, primarily because it 07 has the slipper, and being that I put on 10k miles on mine in just a year, but after looking at a charcoal colored 07, I really wasn’t pleased with the aesthetics. Too “industrial” looking. Any feedback?

Prior said he would race you however he said he wants to for money. I told him it didnt sound like you wanted to race for cash. But hey who knows!
