Sweet bike man!  I went to an 07 S4Rs to from a 01 R1 - the power delivery is very different but the Monster is super fun to ride and has a load of torque.  You won't skip a beat on the new bike!

Likewise here. Went from an '05 R1 to an '07 S4RS. What you will notice immediately is how busy you are shifting since your only allocated 10,500 before the revlimiter kicks in. Your bike might be different.

Over all, since I don't plan on doing a track day or hitting 120 in the Canyons, I love my Monster.

Thanks for all the great comments.  I can't wait to pick her up.  I was amazed at looking through Los Angeles there were hardly and S4Rs for sale at a reasonable price ( 2 of the 3 I found were on this forum).  I really wanted this color combination and finally found one about 150 miles away.  It will be a great break in ride bringing her home.  I don't think my neighbors are going to be happy when I bring this beast home though as the ZARD exhaust is far from quiet.
