That's R series, not R1's, but the R1 they included is my model: this is what they say which is hardly uprising!

There are so many generations of R1 to choose from, but if you want a refined and yet still blisteringly fast road bike, the 5PW R1 is the pick. Featuring a beautiful fuel-injection system, this generation has a wonderful feeling of overall balance. Far more stable than earlier models and with less of a brutal throttle response, it has bags of character (like it's owners) and also looks beautiful, in fact it's the second most aesthetically pleasing bike on the Ducati community forum after Exige's sublime Tesi 3D Edizione Finale.

The early carbed versions of the R1 and R6 were great bikes when sorted.
My 98 R1 was an animal on track but I was just as fast on my 99 R6 with half the effort.
