Brand new R1 bag of sh*t! Spins constantly.On my first trip yesterday,I had no less than 3 rear wheel drifts..?

I'll give you a quarters worth of thought on this one-how much air are carrying in the back tire.Tires made for the highway ride are not to good for those who want to play around a little.You need some experience on how to set your bike up-maybe you should go to a local track and try to pick up some pointers on how to do so,and while you are there you can learn a little about throttle control.Temp has a little to do with it but after 5-6 miles you should be good to go.An if you actually think that your old fireblade can take this bike--brother you need to come across the pond and ride with me and sportbike and you will see how wrong you are about that yamaha...My door is always open and waiting for a new rider and friend to walk in.
