no doubt. Back when I first got my RM125 dirtbike, my buddy that raced motocross was making me look like a little bitch lapping me on an XR200(not his, he had a YZ125). My bike was a thousand times faster than his, but he was a lot better rider than me. When it comes to lap times, the rider makes all the difference.Originally Posted by JDM_EK4
It truly all boils down to the rider on a stock bike..
I hate when people say this shit....when the specs and stats are so damn close, it doesnt matter if a bike is .02 sec. quicker in the 1/4mile. What it comes down to is having the balls and skills to be able to push a bike to its limit.
Now, back on topic, I think you should go with the R1. Like you said, "who else has an R7"? Well, the answer to that is damn near no one. That being said, who knows how to work on an R7? Same answer. I think if you are planning on riding the bike, get the R1. Actually, on second thought, get the R7 as long as you can get a deal on it, then sell it to a collector for $30K, then get an R1 and have enough cash left over to do whatever you want to it plus some.
