Welll.... Right now i have a deposite on an 05 R1 (raven).... I have had 3 gixxer 750's and im a die hard suzuki fan. But the 05 gixxer 1k is just not doing it for me.

I originaly was going to buy a clean low miled 2004 gixxer 1k.... But im too worried about how it was treated / crashed / and if that was the actual milage...

I have ridden 03-04 gixxer 1k's and i LOVE them. Very fast. But how does the R1 compare to the gixxers in power? I know they are close in HP #'s but i could of sworn the gixxer made power alot lower ???

It just feels so weird to switch to yamaha. Even tho i think R1 is the best LOOKING bike.

Any R1 riders have any comments about their bike / expieriences?

Thanks.
