I'm keeping up with the Jones haha.

Been after one for ages. Had the fixed ratio 19 x 18 for years and always impressed but always wanted to try the RCS so bought another as a treat.

Great mod as universal so can put on any bike. I Bought the 19 x 18 for my zx6 but fitted to blade when p/x'd

Been considering getting the matching Brembo RCS clutch mc but figured I would need another matching Rizoma reservoir so both sides matched up.

Crikey I didn't realise it cost £75 plus another £33 for the bracket. Its nice kit Rizoma but very very expensive IMO.

I must stop looking at this thread......

The reservoirs on the RSV look shite, the lids are well known for getting eaten... I really like the look of those....

The clutches don't tend to come up used from what I've seen sadly.

The RCS is fantastic. I've had two in my time. RC8 has a decent Brembo mc anyway so doesn't need the upgrade IMO.

I'm all spent out at the moment, Blade. I still want to get the wheels powercoated and the bike needs servicing soon so i think thats my lot for a while.

I still want to get a bike cam this summer too.
