Wet mode is ace.. what's even better is riding it in wet mode for a few weeks and the switching to dynamic... It feels like the enterprise acceleratingPerkles wrote:rode it in the rain in wet mode

I think you'd be surprised quite how well it keeps up in a roads as well. I think it would only be straightish a roads where you can really use the full power of the RR that I would struggle.Perkles wrote:I do like the look of the XR I think it would destroy mine down a B road tbhD6Nutz wrote:Wet mode is ace.. what's even better is riding it in wet mode for a few weeks and the switching to dynamic...

Once you pick the revs up, it's proper quick up to about 120-130 then it tails off. From about 90-100 I reckon the RR would take off. But that's not counting for the decat and remap though, I watched one of those disappear away from the RSV a few years back at the IoM. Proper speed weapon.

I'm colour blind so cant tell, but do they have a blue tint, as people are always weary of a blue tint in the light

Re: What did you do to your bike today ??
I forgot that I needed petrol, so the trip to the station and fuelling up added 15 minutes to the start of the journey. By the time I had got to the m42 it was at a standstill from junction 2 to junction 3. 7.10am and there was already a massive tailback. I was the only bike this morning (that I saw).

Re: What did you do to your bike today ??
A cold one this morning. There was some ice and frost about so I took the main roads to the motorway as I knew they would be less likely to have ice on them than my usual route.

Be careful Kwacky it's horrible out there. We ve had an hour of snow and although it hasn't stuck its slippy under foot never mind at speed on a bike, surrounded by toastie warm muppets using their phones instead of safely piloting a 1.5 ton weapon.Kwacky wrote:A cold one this morning.

Stay safe pal Maybe leave early and finish stuff at home on the lap top.
