Do you even need the side stand with that rear
CBA getting into it on FB MCN page, but you know my thoughts, Road5 or Roadtecs FTW. Must have a couple thou on my Road5s now and they still look pretty new.
I think I’ve finally convinced myself to go for the Road5s.

Life's too short for shit / worn tyres - do the needful.

I can't say I haven't had my money's worth out of them at 8k miles, can I?

No that's more than I get out of a rear on my substantially less torquey RT.

Too many negatives in there for me to understand. But giving your Northern ways, I'm guessing you would like it to last for longer, perhaps even forever

Can’t you not understand what Rev isn’t saying? Or maybe isn’t because you won’t not.

The want is strong. Also - the full-jizz version is now called M Sport not HP, which makes me unnecessarily happy.

Really sucks it was wet for the release day, but that Shift Cam engine sounds fucking incredible. 90% of torque from 5k - blimey. I love the 9k shift in performance from mine but let's be honest - torque wins.
Oh and that TFT dash is next-level. And tbh the whole package sounds incredible. But I'll stick with mine because I'm cheap

I'll stick with my SingleR because I'm too fat for sportsbikes :p

I like the package in principle but unless you plan on hitting a track I am just left a little cold by them these days. My Suzuki was frustrating enough on the road.
That said I'm looking forward to the dry tests

Good vid that !
My bike insurance has shot up this year through bennetts - any pointers who is good for mods? Seems actually telling them about my better brakes makes the policy rise

If you’re the kind of person that needs better brakes, you must be a nutter
