Know how you feel mate. I need another track bike and was hanging out for the new Gixxer being loyal to Suzuki but what the dissapointment Pi_freak Between BMW and RSV4 and a new Yamaha put a deposit today for the new R1M. Hopefully enough of them will came to Australia to get it. Funny enough it is from the same dealer that sold me two Suzukis before but given up on them altogether and switched to Yamaha last year.

Well, you know as usual BLOODY FANTASTIC Yes I went only for Tuesday but came home Thursday. If they were running it on Thursdays I would probably still be there and go straight to the show on Friday Lol3 After 8 months break I forgot how good it is there. We were lucky, as after Monday deluge we had reasonably good weather with only 4 wet sessions in two days.
As to the R1M I just need another track bike and this one seem to have everything I wanted in one package. Overall, it will save a heaps of money as the usual throw away half the bike and replace with better staff will not be necessary. It already has the good bits on it Clap Well, maybe the exhaust Scary

Did you get a chance to test ride a bike..best I was allowed was to fire up an ebr..with the slash cut exhaust. .it was loud..like a full system on a ducati 1198..and they say its legal...)).
Looks like the 300km rule is over..new bikes are way powerful with less weight..and sound no longer a problem. .new bikes like r1..with open moto gp exhaust...ok underslung mufler

Yes don't know why Suzuki weren't there. Wasn't a big deal for me.
