The owner of the 98 R1 once ate a whole bottle of sleeping pills.

He blinked.

They're very responsive to the slightest twist of the throttle.

[Fisty]

When a 98 R1 starts up, the sheer torque of the bike rotates the earth under the wheel in the direction the rider would like to go thus taking him to his chosen location.

'98 R1's never overtake, because they're always infront.



If a 98 R1 hits the side of a petrol tanker at its top speed it will not cause any explosion. The speed is so immense it simply passes through and leaves a hole in the tanker and comes out the other side.

The 98 R1 creates enough energy from a full tank of petrol to power New York for 8 weeks.

the 98 r1 feels manly till you ride a 1989 GSXR1100K which has much the same power but far worse handling and is far manlier bigger and heavier.

If you were to park a 98 R1 next to a GSXR1100K, the K would in disgust fall off its stand and crush the R1 into a small pile of plastic and gayness.

[VincentR1]

supposively there the most aggressive r1 ever made?

[Wafer_Thin_Ham]

[VincentR1]

correct pal, i will have to get used to it first before trying to push it to some limits

[ken]

I very much doubt you will ever get near to its limits

I'd suggest getting a slightly lower powered bike first unless you've already had experience.

As Keith said, likely to react clumsily in a situation and an advanced course won't teach you much. Nearly all of it comes from it happen to you on the road and you correcting it.

Hi

Lets say that being inexperienced doubles your chance of an accident (I suspect the ratio is far higher than that). That is about the same as driving when just over the drink drive limit. Most of the time you will still get away with it, but not always.

All the best

Keith
