Never Forgotten
The R1 is hands down the worst on mid-range of the big four's liter bikes. The 5 valve head on the older models, 04-06 and even with the new 4 valve head on the 07.
It is noticable, especially when compared to a Busa. Most of the R1's I have ridded are all piped, mapped and a few other mods. The stocker I have is VERY soft up until 8k or so. Take a look at any 04-06 dyno and look at the dip at 7k rpm.
Most all full systems, with custom mapping will add 15-20 RWHP in the 7k range. Combined with some slight gearing along with pipe and PC3, the R1 will be close to a modded GSXR, ZX10.....
I am going to run a off the shelf map from Dynojet until I can get some dyno time....
