Default My new bike!! Not a Honda!!

Here's some pics of my 2006 Yamaha R1. I bought the bike February 5th w/ 1200 miles and completely bone stock. The original owner thought he wanted a bike but didn't like it.

Mods I've done so far:
Full Termignoni Competition Exhaust
A&R Smog Block Offs
Factory Pro Velocity Stacks
BMC Race Filter
Secondary Throttle Butterflies Removed
Power Commander w/ basemap
Puig Dark Smoke Double Bubble Windscreen
Gregg's Custom Flush Mount Signals
Clear Alternatives Integrated Taillight
Rear Fender Eliminator w/ Tag Bracket
T-Rex Frame Sliders
Harris Grips
Yamaha Tuning Forks Bar Ends, Reservior Caps, and Oil Filler Cap
12k HID Kit

Future Mods:
Get tuned
Pazzo Levers
Vortex Rearsets
GPR Steering Dampner
520 Chain Conversion w/ -1 in front
Lots of Carbon Fiber
Maybe do some BST or Marchesni Wheels

Now for Pics:










Tell me what you think.

Yeah I have a friend that works there that gave me a great deal on it. He told me about it before they purchased it and asked if I'd be interested.

No it's the full Termignoni Competition Exhaust in Stainless it's not the slip ons or the weak *** Termignoni Strada exhaust. Pazzo levers aren't that cheap. They go for around $220. They'll be on order soon, that and the Vortex Rearsets.

Termignoni makes the Competition Exhaust in Stainless Steel or Titanium. They also make a cheap model that is just a factory copy of the headers w/o the EXUP valve and slip-ons called the Strada Exhaust. I lot of people w/ Termignoni get the Strada or just the slip ons. You don't get the perfomance gains like the full system. The titanium units are just lighter they make the same power. My bike is 100% street so I went w/ the Stainless.

They are in Marietta which is a suburb of Atlanta. It's probably 30 minutes north of Atlanta on 75. It's nowhere in the boonies. Tons of people commute from Marietta to downtown Atlanta to work everyday. Traffic on 75 during rushour is the worst of any highway.

There was a guy at the CSBS with a R1 that looked just like that except that it had a bunch of Grave's parts on it.

I passed him going into turn 6

220 for pazzo's is expensive !!!!

you need some rearsets.

and need to get rid of the 12k HID, go to a 6k the highest, your actually hurting you visability with the 12k. and doesn't it give that barney purple color ??

and a solo seat cover with the passanger pegs gone will really make the bike look nice
