Although I love the finished look, I couldn't see anything hugely wrong with the bike in the first place?

All that money... then ruins it with far too many stickers, tis stunning though. Can only dream of having the money to do something like that.

Jesus....the bike looked immaculate to me to start with! definitely cleaner than any bike I've ever owned! Was killing myself when I saw that he cleaned the wiring looms

Looks horrible IMO,i like the extras but the original paint was much nicer.

I liked the part where I saw old vs new / dirty vs shiny comparison pics

ms51ves3: why does it need 500 miles? Are you teaching it how to be a piston?

disgusting far to much carbon looks to it, if it got painted up it might look nicer

Bizarrely, I don't really like it.

Don't get me wrong, I love stainless and titanium bolts, I love stripping a bike down and making sure everything is cleaner/better working order than it was before, I oggle at anything Ohlins, or carbon, or exotic, I drool at Brembo Monoblocks, the latest and greatest trinkets that money can buy.

But for some weird reason, that bike doesn't do anything for me - not in the way that £25k should do.

A tidy £14k RC30, with a race can howling around Box Hill bypass is enough to make me fall to my needs in a mess of tears, an £18k Ducati 999R gleaming at a bike meet will send me straight to the nearest lavatory with a box of Kleenex, a £250 CG125 with knackered everything will remind me how great the world is...but that R1....don't know why....but it's just kinda m'eh.

Sending the crash bungs away to an engineering place to get them skimmed to remove stone chips?

What a cunt.

read through the whole thread and like a few other people was not wowed, i think the lack of a paintjob did that though, the ducati 749R has carbon fairings and they painted them and they look great, but un painted carbon looks its not new to people any more , ive seen those wheels before and those BST are nice, probably the best thing on the bikes apart from the suspension and brakes

It's amazing, but all that top-end gear and you know it will just be used for photoshoots.

What a waste man!
