Well, after 11 months of down time due to a failure of the shift drum inside the transmission, my R1 was put back in service. Today a friend of mine and I rode my R1 and the FJR to our Sunday morning coffee spot. It was great to be able to ride the R1 again, and to ride it back to back the FJR.

My R1 "Farkles" to date:

Custom paint by Robert Dussault

Graphic Art Moto Design/Mototeck undertail

Mototeck flushmounts

Graphic Art Moto Design/Mototeck white tach guage face

Rohm Performance titanium exhaust hangar

Powder coated wheels

Micron carbon oval slip-on

Yamaha rear seat cowl

Two Brothers adjustable clip-ons

Carbon fiber chain guard

Ohlins steering damper w/ Black Widow Racing mount

Galfer stainless steel brake lines w/Speed Bleeders

Front forks modified and re-sprung by Lindemann Engineering

Fork tubes, titanium nitride coated

Penske 8987 rear shock (custom springing and valving)

Transmission gear dogs "undercut"

11 months down time?! Why so long?
I was forced to do the work myself, at someone elses house. Now you have conflicting schedules, parts acquisitions, lying machine shops, yada, yada, yada.

He must be good if he rode both! How did you get there? :haha:

That R1 is real nice looking!
Maybe I just dreamed it! Actually, I guess I'm just a weak proof reader!
