Motorcyclenews rate the R1 better than the RSV4, a big part of that is down to price. But this is MCN we're talking about, so best to make your own mind up, I do know that the new R1 is in short supply until August.

yep your right , it might be a little to much for me to justify 15k when if i only chuck 3k at the front end and some light wheels on the 10 that i love to bits ,it'll handle just as well as the rsv4
just dont know yet  :dontknow:

Its a bit more than 3k Silky...

Seriously though BST's make a HUGE difference to the way the bike handles.
Anyone that tells you you don't need to touch the suspension with them on is talking shite though.
The main thing is the springs rates need changing - had to go 1 lower front and rear to compensate.

hammy 3k is probably a touch low but the backs already sorted with a ttx, so about 1500 on forks and 1500 on some pvm's , the forks are off somebody i know bitubo's  :dontknow:

Bitubos? not my fave but then I don't like Ohlins either  [whistle]
For that money talk to Will at WP - you'd be suprised what they have for that money.
