Default Me And The one "R1"

Hi Friends, finally my wait for the big bike is over got myself a 2008 official R1 the blue one. Planed to buy the Ninja 250 but after trying my friends Ninja simply don't like the power. So the R1.
It was all most in showroom condition and had done 460 km while taking delivery, got a good dill on it. Am really happy with it. Once my exam is over will post the pictures and my experience in detail.

PS- Thanks to Ken Cool, Rossiter and Fireblah for all the help and supports for selecting the bike, they always answered all my quarries when ever I called them irrespective of time, thanks again.
