Default 2005 Yamaha R1

05 R1, Blue, around 9,800 miles, almost all commuting to and from work.

Fender eliminator - rear looks much cleaner, llicense plate lowered with custom LED lighting.
Integrated tail light - turn signals inside tail light, much cleaner
Puig Double bubble dark windshield - less wind hitting you and allows tall guys to rear gauges easier.
Flush mount LED front turn signals with proper flasher module - much cleaner in front end, doesnt flash fast like a lot of them do, flashes at normal speed
HID's - cant remember if its a 6k or 8k kit but they are awesome, slim ballasts.
Polished stainless weighted bar ends - helps reduce vibrations
Stock mufflers have A&R baffles - maintains stock look but sounds awesome!
A&R smog block off plates - eliminates the popping you get after installing muffler baffles.


It had new tires put on in the fall and it pretty much went straight to storage after that. Its covered in a garage with a battery maintainer on it. It's NEVER been down, never been stunted, great clean bike. I bought from original owner with approx 2k miles back in 2007. I used it mostly for commuting to work. I've never had any problems with it, it needs nothing...ready to go! I did have it dynoed at a bike night and it was 142 RWHP. This is a very clean and tastefully modified bike and I hate to see it go, but certain things in life come first and I need the cash.

Bike located in West Des Moines, IA. Call or text 515-577-8640 if interested. Serious inquiries only. $5,500 OBO

Apparently this is the only picture I have found and its an older one that doesnt show the new parts. If the sun comes out this weekend I may pull it out of storage to get more pictures if people are interested. Also a pic in my signature below.

I also have a very nice matching textile jacket and Shoei helmet that can be included for additional cost.

160-180 miles per tank and it usually takes about 4 gal to fill up so about 40-43 MPG depending on how you ride.

It was sitting in the garage just like it is now

I have my TA and R1 for sale...I'll keep whichever one doesnt sell first. I'd rather keep the bike but sometimes we cant have everything we want.
