I've been lucky to have ridden lots of bikes via my position with No Limits, but the R1 I rode at Snet, even though it wasn't hugely sorted, just a trackbike with a few mods, but it was unbelievable. You're right about the front end Lil, the Duc just feels so planted, but the R1 wants to lift in every gear, so much so that you just can't open the throttle fully, but when you do, wow, it really is a scary rush of adrenilin

TBH, too much for little old me. My instructor mates Lawsey and Old Man Mick have a K4 and a K5 and they've often said have a go, but I've not taken them up on it, (yet), maybe Jerez as they're both going to be there and you can really use the power.

try the k5 next time your at snetterton, makes the R1 seem tame
