    Anyone read the latest Performance Bikes Mag yet?


    The 2015 R1 looks amazing and they reckon the development models have been running around with 230 bhp but will be tuned down to a measly 200 for us mortals!


    Does look SEXY as!

    that looks lush, might have to trade the 2013 blade in for it ;)... naaaah it'll break down and overheat, just like the first big bang ;) better off waiting until 2016 I reckon, but it does look great

    I like the front end much more aggressive look than the last few models

    Nice mock up.... Would be excellent if it looks like this.

    Me and the lads were talking bout this last night, rumours are its 200bhp but not heard about the tuning down :(

    Other mock up I saw last night

    But from the spy shots I've seen looks as though they are doing away with underseat pipes like above

    that looks more like a 125 than a 1000, and that sit style suits the tourers than the racers.... THe first pic is by far the nicest of the r1 that have leaked out

    Hope they lose the cross-eyed look of the headlights.

    The first R1 looks good although not keen on the red colour, makes it look to much like the R6 colour scheme
