Well I just bought my 06' 1000RR. What a beautiful bike. They really built these nice, it handles very good and has more power than I can use. I got the yellow and blue colored bike. The seat isn't that comfortable though, maybe I just need to get used to it. My ass is killing me, it seems better if I sit further from tank though. I have been riding to work for past week and got just over 400 miles, wife has been making me take her for little putts.

Congrats and enjoy. It is always good when the wife wants to play too. Maybe she will even want her own someday?

Antwan84, You said your bike only has 30 miles on it.

If this is a brand new bike with only 30 miles on it, I would take it easy with the wheelies while the motor is still breaking in. Just my opinion.

Agreed on the painful seat. I guess it just goes to show how much this is a race bike at heart. You can slide on the seat very easy, but for long hauls it leaves something to be desired. Once I get all my turnsignal taken care of a Corbin seat might be in my future, for non-track riding at least.
