Recently,it was shown that differential rotation is an unavoidable featureof nonlinear r-modes. We investigate the influence of this differentialrotation on the detectability of gravitational waves emitted by anewly born, hot, rapidly-rotating neutron star, as it spins downdue to the r-mode instability. We conclude that gravitational radiationmay be detected by the advanced laser interferometer detector LIGOif the amount of differential rotation at the time ther-mode instability becomes active is not very high.
