Got the pads today for the R1, he suggested putting new fluid in & trying them out before buying the Brembo radial (I am buying it from him) He did suggest re-vavling & re-springing the forks. I'm obviously not gonna get a Maxton job done, but he does tons of forks for older R1's & he reckons it's a remarkable difference. There was a steady stream of folk picking up re-done forks today. Never done owt with forks before, advice? He quotes around £175 for re-valved & re-sprung.. -- Nige, Land Rover 90 Yamaha R1 Range Rover Vogue
You're not short of a bob or two. As others have said, why don't you just go out and buy the bike you want ? Seems you want a newer R1, Mr Yamaha has already incorporated most of the mods you crave Paul.
