Not yet I'm not. The way the economy is going, it's a far reach but hopefully when Adam wins the Lottery he'll get me the R1 he promised

I know that the Beemer is a popular bike right now but I'm not a huge fan of German engineering so that one is out of the question. Since the 1000 did so well, word is that they might be releasing a 600 version as well but that's not in the immediate future.
I'm leaning towards getting the r1 and finishing up the Yamaha family before moving up to Ducati and spending a small fortune on their lineups. Hopefully Santa will be nice to me this year and help me out with my dream
