Hi all this is my 1st post as a new member.I have just got a 2003 rsvr black frame model.
This is my 2nd mille but my 1st (R). I love it, it needs a few jobs doing to it like fork seals and a service, i will do that next week.
A strange thing happend on my first ride out. I rode down a bypass at speed and then braked for the roundabout, came to a stop, went to pull away but the brakes were almost locked on. I got to a lay-by and got off. You could smell hot brakes, after a few seconds i could rock the bike back and forward. And it was ok after that. Any thourghts?
I sold my 2008 r1 a few weeks back to save some money and got this bike as a replacement. As i said i love it, it handels better than anything i have ever ridden. OK its no R1 pace but that was one reson for the change. I went to show the lads my new toy, some said nice things but the best coment was O MY GOD you brought a XR3i.
Thats all for now, keep posting. Thanks Phil.....
 
front or rear brakes has it got non gen levers has the rear brake been adjusted too much ie no free play in the lever also dont get the xr3i thing
