Grumpyowl 0 Posted March 16, 2011 I bought one new in 1998 best bike I've ever had had it nearly seven years and had a brainstorm that I fancied something new I said it before and will say it again and again the worst decision of my life selling that bike. In my opinion in the real world unless you live for trackdays better than the R1.God I miss my Thunderace Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
