Will have to dig out some pics of mine. It was in green, bought back in 2004, think it was a less than a year old bike at the time. Fairly standard, I think I added an Akrapovic and link pipe, PCIII, LSL rearsets, Steering damper (cant remember what type), wavy rear disk, tinted screen, tail tidy, braided hoses etc. Managed ok with the stock suspension with a bit of twiddling, the lairy handling was what made it exciting! Ridden on the road with one or two track visits during the year or so I had it. Think that year was the most road miles I have ever done in a year as I used it as transport as well as for fun, preferring to leave the car at home.

I just remember it seemingly went like fook, was flighty, exciting and a world more fun than the pretty but boring Ducati 748 I had before it and much more modern than the Srad 600 I had in '98 which sent me mad with its carb icing. I chopped the B1 in at Taz in 05 for a brand new ZX10R, more of the same only even dafter!

After I had been trackday-ing a while, must have been in 08/09 I had a loan of a mates very trick B1 and it handled amazingly on its WP suspension but wasn't as exciting as I remembered (maybe fixing the suspension made it faster but less dramatic) and by then I had been spoiled with litre 4's, all with slipper clutches fitted. Looking back at all the bikes I have owned its still the only one that I gelled with the first time I rode it and wish I kept a bit longer.

B1/2's I remember on here are the Orange one made famous by Dale Lomas of PB and now ring taxi fame which HP bought and clocked up loads of miles, Danny from Faster by design had a trick one if I remember right, Foo had a black one with flowers. I remember Vidals track bike with some trick bits which was later painted white and was owned by Emma for a while.

Farmer Giles

My B1.. bought from another forum member (maybe Lewis ?)

Mostly standard apart from a re-sprung rear shock by Zenodamper, seat hump, mini indicators, tail tidy and exhaust hanger.. just rode it tbh.. pictured with my other favourite toy of my past.. 





And on track at Donnington heading down to Melbourne loop at a Ninjafest, maybe 2006 or 2007.






was a great little machine on road and track, one of my selling regrets for sure..  but I still have the memories..    :cool:

1-600-matt



Bought it in about 2008 or so as a pretty stock bike. The last couple of years have seen a few things change.
WP shock, WP fork springs, traxxion dynamic piston kit, custom front wheel spacers, arrow steering damper, brembo mc, brembo discs, brembo pads, braided lines, CRG clutch lever, samco hoses, sigma slipper clutch, chain and sprockets, pc3 and custom map, piper cross filter, pipewerx can, rearsets, quick action throttle, NRC engine casings, dented tank and finished off with a shit paint job.

Now we need Wizzbang, Wallace and NinjaGirl to wade in with some pics! And they are the ones I can definitely remember having B1's!

You must have some somewhere Paul? I'll dig about and see what I can find, didn't have it that long though really did I. 7 months I think it was and it got nicked. I didn't do anything to mine though really, Akky Ti slip on, k&n and a pciii and that was about it iirc.

Tail tidy, BlueFlame twin-port, K&N, R&G bungs. arrow indicators and seat hump
Wife's B1 is an ex-Kawasaki UK bike and has barely turned a wheel in the last 6/7 years, think it shows 3,600 miles on the clock  :embarrassed:
Should probably have gone to fund other toys but way too pretty to sell  :cool:

I told you about 6/7 years ago that you should have let me have it Phil, you and Kath wouldn't listen though.

I fucking loved that bike, flowers and all!

Loved that bike, blue flame exhaust, shorty levers, ohlins steering damper and braided hoses, shock worked for me and bike looked like a mini Moto with me on it but damn I had fun on it and I always got off with with a big beaming grin..
