hey yall im new to the 1000 world
i just picked up a 07repsol
im only 18 but all my life ive had 600s
it seems like the 1000rr is hard to turn ovr is this just the high compression??
it starts but it just takes a litle longer than the little 600 ?????

 

Sorry to poke fun, but that line cracks me up.

I have a 2006 1000RR and I really wouldn't worry about it as long as it only takes a "little" longer than your 600's. I have 16,500 miles on my bike now nad I haven't had any issues with it at all (meanwhile, my friendd has an '06 GSXR w/ 4,000 miles that is already in the shop- and that is not to say that other brands suck, I am just pointing out a fact)

You bought a good bike and it should be fine, but you could always have a mechanic take a look at it.

...and welcome to the "open class" world. Be safe and respect your new-found power!

 

yeah yhanks for the input man
i am actually a good wrench i do alot
it was just nvr my problem 2 worry about bc i nevr had a 1000
nothing like it sick power and this electronic steering damper is insane it feels so steady yet easy at low speeds..........thanks man

 

Should fire up pretty easy, my 06 starts easy just a second ortwo. It depends how long of cranking the motor yourtalkiing about but I wouldnt worry unless its getting harder andharder to start. Possibly fouled plugs or maybe your batterys low from sitting .Congrats on the bike your gonna love it Ijust boughtmy new 06 2 weeks ago : )
