Just a quick Hi from me then as i've recently bought my first RSV, an '05 Mille R Factory.
Looking for those all important tricks and tips and have found some on her already to solve some of the common niggles they all have.
Only been riding just over 2yrs, peviously had K4 GSXR600 and K7 GSXR750 road bikes, a '99 cbr600fx track bike and this year an '08 R6 race bike for some endurance fun.
Looking forward to annoying the neighbours with the RSV already

Bought Aunt Mille over christmas as an 'expendable' track bike. Little bugger's worked her magic on me I swear it. Made me pay hundreds on race pipes, chips, clutches, sticy tyres, sprockets, chains................. Sellin me new R1, give me Aunt mille ANY day!

Hi all,
I have just got a 2001 Mille, very happy with her, there are a cauple of niggle problems, mostly bodywork related, small dent in the left swing arm, i think its where the footpeg as been pushed back into it.
but apart from that she seems ok (touch wood) and the number plate ends in RSV!
If there is any other riders in the Nottinghamshire/Derbyshire area let me know!

hi all,
just brought my rsv mille at the weekend, matt black edition 2001 reg on Y plate. all standard. previous owner removed all the decals. goes like stink and i love it!.
my previous bikes have been kwak zzr600, suzuki tl1000s (great twin), yam R1, yamaha raptor 660 quad and now my new baby rsv. my love of vtwins came from the suzuki tl, replaced that with the R1, good bike but always lacked the torque of a twin.
will be keeping this for a while
cheers
