welcome here “Reggie R1”. Where did you see the 2009 R1?
EM
I like the fact that it’s invisible to Speed Cameras:D
:D:D:D:D:D:D
I ll buy 2 of them (for the moment)

I saw an updated prototype on the net, probably looks nothing like the real thing:w00t: I’ll hunt around for the pics…
Now if they could stop the frame from cooking your legs I might go back…
Saw these the other day on the net, ones a artist impression. The other seems to have the same exhaust as the new Blade!

That’s the pic I saw, you’re right it does use the 08 blades exhaust, it also uses some of the current R1 side fairings, doubt if the production bike will look anything like that.
Gonna have to wait till the tail end of September before it’s unveiled I’m afraid…Loads of ‘artist’ impressions going around the net.
This has been discussed before on here aswell.

HERES ANOTHER PREDICTION IVE FOUND ROLE ON SEPT OCTOBER AND THE NEC
I might even attend the NEC this year me ol’ chum…Been 3 years.
The white one is pig ugly … too similar to the new blade :crazy:
If that is the direction they are taking, then I’ll be leaving the Yamaha camp … scooters are looking good these days :hehe:
Even I’m quite intrigued now to know what it’ll look like!

your R1 looks nice with the new fairing on now ricks
We’ll hopefully be seeing some official pics coming out of Yamaha on Monday.
“You would not want to miss this.”! 
Forget all the previous previews, this is how it’ll look 
Like the picture ricky is that u flying down the motorway;)
hope they dont make a mess of it like ol’ honda 
Apparently, the Blade hasn’t been selling that well in the US due to the looks.
