I just picked up a new 2009 Yamaha YZF-R1 this past Saturday. It's still all stock and definitely a lot faster than I ever care to go on a bike. The low and mid end torque on this thing is flippin' wicked! Needless to say it's an absolute blast to ride :) I look forward to seeing how haemphyst graphically accessorizes it ;)

Hey just remember, no matter how controlled the wheelie looks, they still call it reckless operation. I never understood that one. |

I went riding with a life long friend Saturday that does wheelies at 70 - 80 mph and stand up wheelies at 110. This is him on his CBR 1000.

| He looks totally in control there, but for some reason the Troopers do not see it that way. |

No doubt. It's not my thing and I don't encourage him. Here's another photo of him from a couple weekends ago on the same bike (red, middle)... this I get into.
