    Evening all,
    I've just pulled the trigger on a 2015 SP. Haven't got a collection date yet but I'm buzzing.
    It's already running an Akra but I'll be looking to add a QS and a decat ASAP.
    Any recommendations on either of these?

    I'm coming from an Aprilia RSV that I had for 4 years. This will be my first IL4 sports bike so it's going to be interesting.

    Any suggestions on mods fire away.
    Also looking for a supplier of matté carbon for the fender and rear hugger.

    Hopefully the image posted.

    For sure! I'm buzzing! It'll be a few months before I get out on it.

    One thing in shocked by, the insurance is substantially higher on it that a Ducati 1299S. o_O the service costs will make up for it. :D

    Oh. and welcome to the forum.

    I too found insurance expensive, but its worth it for me. The bike is cheap to run and reliable (I hope!!).

    Hi and welcome to the forum!

    Posting pics is easy, just press the upload button, it will take you to your phones image files, select an image and thats it. Sometimes if and image won't upload its because the resolution is to high and the file is too big. Easiest most simplest way around that is to screenshot the image .......and then upload the screenshot. Trust me it works :)

    Well that was easy. A little embarrassed I had to ask.

    Rite, now to find a QS thread to see what's best to fit.

    Eyes like a hawk! Going non ABS was more of a fluke than a choice then i started to do some research an did seems the preferred model.

    Does the Translogic require an additional module like PCV?
