Just read the supplement in mcn for the
Bike show, franklin says , the engine has
Tremendous power but its delivery is linear
Making it extremely usable and tractable
For road riding . Odd !!

Hypocrite's the lot of 'em!!!!

Think they should take more note of what they write on single bike road tests and then group tests!

I think they are all fantastic bikes in their own right and each have their qualities that appeal to different people, id have anyone if they were given to me but I prefer my 10R if I had to buy and I did buy one.

To be fair, a minority of Journos from certain bike publications will admit it's hardly a fag-paper thickness between all the litre bikes out there, they'll all bonkers road bikes and a hoot on track, just depends which one your heart desires...which brings me to my point....
MCN have to "sensationalize" everything to justify and validate their shite journalism, and unfortunately two of Bauer-media's three protaganists are cut from the same cloth.
