    What is this "skidmark" phenomena of which you speak?

    Wouldn't be the skinny streak of duckshit that threatened to "come sort me out" would it? Nah, I'm over that one too, poor old skiddy gets enough beans without my two cnets.

    Anyone else?

    2009 r1

    Stew from TSS MOTORCYCLES PETONE pushed me onto one of these a few weeks ago so i could take it out and see what i thought.
    If i can describe this superbike in one word it can be summed up by the word "INSANE".

    Brutal power delivery you could ride this bike and never get out of first gear and still get a ticket on the highway , very impressive
    Its a matter of trying to keep the front wheel on the ground rather than trying to get it off the ground!

    Very nice toy to have in the garage.

    Yes, the new 09 YZF-R1 is awesome. The old model was a good bike but the technology on the new one is a massive leap forward. I did 700 kms on our Demo the other weekend and loved it. Didn't want to get off it

    Thanks Darrin,

    Yup I had it to 170 in first on a motorway onramp in the wet... reckon I could have pushed 175+ had I not been struggling to keep the rear from spinning and the front from lifting up at the same time well above legal sppeeds with 5 gears to go. If u asked me to sum this bike up in one word I'd say "LOL".

    I bet the center of your tyre wears out before you even polish those chicken stripes off!

    When my rear spins my speedo goes with it.
    its impressive doing 220 with both feet firmly on the ground...

    Yes that is true, but I'm too busy judging the next 60 odd feet, as as you will know that when your spinning letting off the throttle is cause for much concern!
