Could well be right about the broken bracket!
Ive only had the car a week and its the first french car ive ever owned, This forum is information rich though which is a great help, Im learning slowly.
Ive a 99 R1 was blue until i sent it down the road and now it yellow, not to everyones taste but i like it. Pic below!!!!
I went to knockhill race circuit on it last year and it was showing up alot of new bikes, ie zx10, 2009/10 R1's and a few gixers.
Ive changed the gearing for acceleration and the thing is mental.............carb,s rule!
Thats me at knock hill last year.
This is its new livery as it stands today!
Id love red & white also, Ive got some of the red and white fairings in the garage saved for a rainy day.

fantastic mate.
the best R1 was the original carb'd animal.
worst thing i ever did,p/x my 98 for a brand new 2002/3 fuel inj model.
most folk cant even ride these new machines,all the gear,no idea.
swap bikes every year when a new one comes out and wins bike of the year in all the mags ffs.
my old rsv mille passed most gixer thou's and left my mates bikes in the twisties and it only had 120 bhp.
not what youve got,but how you ride it mate.
i loved cadwell,was always my fave track day,mountain is awesome on the back wheel lol.

Cheers fella,
Know what you mean about the no idea bit! Plenty of em out there............
Rsv mille=shed loads of torque! Need to be brave to master the engine braking on them beasts!
Knockhill is ace when your power wheelie at 145mph at the top of the hill only to have to jam on your brakes once yourve landed it to make turn 1 off camber and downhill. Fu*king ace.
Do love love the 172 though!
