Re: Test rides and a tough call

Then why not try the r1150r, handles better than the GS, is more comfitable than the S. Not as ugly as the GS. It has the later gearbox and twin spark engine which improves on the S.

Roger thanks for setting me right but by fiddling I was thinking of minor things like exhust swaps and not hot tuning. Would not the new system be able to handle that on it's own?

Re: Longer front brake line

Have a look at the lines from the R1150R I'm sure that it's a longer distance from brake to lever. The evo2 with abs is steel braded.

There are a couple running around here but if you are stuck behind one when filtering it is real scary to see them wobble all over the place. They must be sooooo top heavy.
