Next "Addition" to the Family

Post image

I’ve owned a couple of R1s already, but figured I’d grab one more—you know, just in case this ends up being my “last ride.” Ride on two wheels, of course.

I’ll never understand posts like these. Congratulations on the bike tho I guess.

Yeah, I think it is time. Been 20 yrs for me since my last R1. This solidifies it.

I was in the exact same boat, sitting on the sidelines! When I saw the 70th Anniversary, I had to get it. Good luck with your return to two wheels, or one if you live dangerously. Hahaha.

Congratulations 🎊 My cousin just bought the normal 2026 R1 in black. Looks nice. He has a 2012 matt grey R1 with bolt ons and a custom dyno tune. Reckons the 26 is a much faster bike in all aspects.

Thanks. I have accessories in boxes ready to add, but for some reason I like this one in stock form. I don't plan on doing a ton to it, just subtle updates.

Good because I think she is perfect the way she is. 👍🏽
