    Had mine fitted to the bike when I bought it 2 years ago and I swear by it. I would have it fitted to any new bike/car now.

    Collected the HRC from the dealership today. First wet day for a while. Typical! :rolleyes: Managed a 40 mile spin during the afternoon when the sun came out but got drenched on the way back. First impressions are really good. Stable and planted even on new rubber in the wet. Looking forward to some drier, warmer weather :)

    Ta mate, and to everyone else who's commented. Just need the bottle to chuck her in to some corners now and get rid of those 'strips' :eek:

    Managed a 50 mile round trip commute to work yesterday. First proper ride since picking her up. Absolutely loving it although got to say the ride seemed a little harsh on less than perfect roads. Not sure if this is down to suspension or running manufacturer recommended tyre pressures or a combination of the two. Dropped the psi earlier to 34f / 36r and will see what, if any, difference that makes next time out. Anyone else experimented with tyre pressures for road use and have any observations?

    I found std setup to hard but you have BPF and better rear shock on the 12 so setup will be very different just make little changes to see if you can improve things I run 32/30 with the interacts seems good for me

    Cheers mate. Appreciate the quick response. Will see how things are with the lower tyre pressures and may tweak the shock settings slightly over the weekend :)
