pretty sure it isn't an R1, but it's too small to tell

[The 240 kid]

Yeah and if it was an R1, I'd like to know the year.

[AunVoh]

i'm interested in knowing more about this, anyone?

[sil80hks]

Dang!! I sure wish my car pulled that hard.

[GEO]

That looks like Pual's car.

[PalmerWMD]

That does look like Pauls car.If so its SR20DET not RB.

Actually its currently FS in in the Nico Nissan cars FS classifieds

Fred..

[OKCA18DET]

correct me if im wrong but a YELLOW R1? riiiiight didnt know they made yellow ones

[AunVoh]

yeah, i don't know.... it could be an r1 but it's so small... it could also be a honda, 600rr or something, but either way, none of those bikes are slow, so i don't know, either they aren't really racing, since they don't appear to be moving quickly.... or the bike is running like ****....

It is obviously a 1st gen R1, but more specific it is a 00-01 R1. How can I tell? The nose is slightly more pointy, the outer edge of the upper fairing by the headlight is skinnier and the lower part where it mates to the mid is more squared off. Last thing that I noticed from the crappy video was an extra air vent in the lower fairing right below the riders knee.**this is comparing the 98-99R1 to the 00-01 since they both use the same frame, they are both 1st gen bikes**

Might also note that front end has been slammed. Typically done for drag racing so you don't wheelie as much on launches, however a lot of squids do it cuz they think it is cool. So this guy is either 1. A serious drag racer and that car is a monster, or 2. Squid that can't ride and the car is still fast.

BTW the bike is painted yellow because it's probably been wrecked and repainted...Any more R1 questions

Is it just me, or are the wheels on the bike HUGE.

I also thought that same thing. To me it looked like they might be chromed so I just assumed it was an optical illusion.
