[damienneo]

hello senior r1 riders, i just deposited for an R1 '05 model today and am most likely taking out the bike in a couple of weeks time. I have a few questions i hope you guys will be able to help me.

 

Can the R1'07/08 fairing fit on my model? bcos i'm sure you guys agree the fairing is much nicer.

 

What are the common problems linked to R1? and roughly how much do these problems cost?

 

The bike shop i bought from says they lost the key to the R1, they have to end up changing the whole CDI which they said will do for me for free. I wanna ask if R1 we lose our keys, really must change the CDI? Are we able to make duplicates of our R1 key?

 

Anybody here know how much a gear indicator cost?

 

Is leovince exhausts good?

 

Another thing is, I told the shop to change the bike's racing footrest(there wasn't any brand name) to a stock one. Cos my previous bike was RVF, from my experience, stock footrest is so much more comfortable than racing ones. Besides that the bike's racing footrest looked very old, and a little rusty, Can anybody tell me if i made the right decision?

 

Lastly, i paid 12k machine for a bike that COE ends in january 2015. The bike has leovince end can, y-pipe and midpipe, only the starting header is stock. It also has OHLIN damper, Brembo calipers for front and brembo brake pump for rear. I told them i wanted to respray the blue paintwork to R1'07 black stock paintwork which is also free. Is it a good deal?

 

The bike is at M1 motoring @ kembangan. FBE1688J. If anybody got go down please take a look and please also give me your comments or advice.

 

Thank you seniors.

 

bro, i just realised when you were riding rvf, i was too. and we were selling it at around the same time. and got a r1 around same time also. haha! all the best! =)

to add on, stock footrest is definitely more comfortable when u are away for long distances.

 

regarding the paintwork, if u want to trade in or sell back to shop next time, it will have lesser value compare to stock (some shops valuate your bike base on paintwork)

Hey bro welcome to world of R1...

 

As far as I noe 07 n 08 fairings can't be mounted on e 05...e air intakes are way much smaller...

 

Heard from a mechanic that r1 has magnet breakage problem and valve prob..magnet problem standby 1k -.- valve depends... If chialat top block need replacement...

 

I personally prefer akra pipes.. But price ^__^

 

Gipro gear indicator at 200plus

 

I got a fren who lost his gsr400 key... Had to replace ignition , ECU... Cost a bomb...not sure if can duplicate keys..

 

The shop guy told me that r1 this kinda bike has chip inside the key, so because the shop lost all the keys inc the master key, he say they will have to change the cdi and bla bla bla...wah the fairing cannot mount on ah...wah lau...i was hoping of hopefully trading fairings with a '07model one..den maybe top him up abit of money...

 

you know how much leovince exhaust cost on the market 2nd hand now? i also like akra/arrow. Was hoping can trade with those people selling their bikes den top them up abit also.

 

wats the mileage.. and wats the otr price? 12k for machine.. shld be quite good lo with the items... but lose keys? lol and no u cant dup ur keys without ur key....

 

Bro they don't have the key so i couldn't check the mileage leh. 12k for machine, 1.6k for insurance tptft...the shop person say the keys inside got chip 1 leh...so even if i got key also cannot duplicate right?

 

bro, i just realised when you were riding rvf, i was too. and we were selling it at around the same time. and got a r1 around same time also. haha! all the best! =)

 

Really ah bro? did we go out together before? thanx alot man! all the best to u too!

 

to add on, stock footrest is definitely more comfortable when u are away for long distances.

 

regarding the paintwork, if u want to trade in or sell back to shop next time, it will have lesser value compare to stock (some shops valuate your bike base on paintwork)

 

i know what you mean bro, however the bike is currently in blue stock paintwork, but the paintwork has alot of very obvious chips and deep scratches. thats why i say i wanted to spray the black 07model 1....i think that colour is nice leh...don't u think so? i dono which year is the 1 that's black with gold wordings...hmm....u know?

[duperman]

sorry ah guys i keep bombing alot of questions but i really want to learn more and this is the only place i know to ask.

 

leovince the exhaust sbk means what ah?

[psychronium]

morning fellow r1 riders

[smoothie]

The shop guy told me that r1 this kinda bike has chip inside the key, so because the shop lost all the keys inc the master key, he say they will have to change the cdi and bla bla bla

yeah that's what i understand too.only the red master key can be used to make duplicates. make sure the mech changes to a brand new & working oem cdi though; not sure if there will be problems if they swap to a used cdi fr a scrapped bike.

 

Bro they don't have the key so i couldn't check the mileage leh. 12k for machine, 1.6k for insurance tptft

i think the price you got is not bad given the accessories and considering today's coe price.

Singaporean R1 rider in aus, just feeling really stupid and that i dropped my own bike while lubing the chain, and have to be charged 180AUD for one bracket only with a waiting time of 2 weeks to repair, and i would have to pay an addtional 60 bucks for them to bolt on a couple of screws.. Feeling so ****ing frustrated here because bike parts are so expensive and labour costs are daylight robberies, and you have to wait for years to get a screw in from somewhere else in the world...

and we always thought that the singaporean bike shop 'uncles' are always cheating us for that $10/$20 more dollars.

 

POOR YOU!

i recently bought some oem r1 parts fr weda @ rowell road & the prices were cheaper than what the online stores that ship to singapore sell them for. not sure if you can consider getting a friend to buy for you here & mail it over. postage charges bet sg & aust shldn't be that high right?
