The other day, I found out the a good friend of mine just bought an 04, R1. I was very happy for him but I told him of the information that was post on our board and forwarded that info to him. During this time we were talking on the phone about it and the first thing that came out of his mouth was the following: "Why do all of you people who never owned an R1 always try to put them down"? My question is, was I out of line to tell him/share the info that I found out about the 04 R1's? My intent was for his safety only. Thanks for letting me vent.
