    Hello Chinny, welcome aboard. Loved my 98 R1, had it new, it was a wild bike in those days compared to the competition. They have moved on a bit since then, yours looks great and black is much faster of course.

    Come come now!

    Physics has proved that Black is the slowest colour due to it's heat retentive characteristics! :eek:

    WHITE is the fastest colour, Dr Brian Cox says so! :D

    Welcome aboard Chinny, I like R1's as I used to be a Yamaha only guy, Lcs, fs1es and coffin tank Rd's.I defected to Honda cos the blade is much easier to ride and the grunt is addictive.Go on , you know you want one.
