That would be a no brained then especially if the owner can do the tear down and reassemble. I could fart a grand. That is a joke of course. If I strained hard enough to fart a grand it’d be a shart.

This new bike is nothing like having a fairing bagger painted.

Getting ready for paint.
Thinking 555 Nm for YurMama.
 

My local dealer (one of the most significant in France and Paris) has sold so far almost 2/3 of R i.e. about twice more than GT's...(but I hear the opposite from other French dealers'). It shows how different is the market and areas demand.

I prefer (and have ordered) a R for the look and red color (but I would have preferred it slightly glittered similarly to the black or grey of the GT and eventually bicolor red predominantly with some black) : don't like the backrest of the GT, makes it too long and not so much "rocket roadster" same with the foot-pegs and I prefer the R seat.

"Unfortunately" for the look, I had to replace the R handlebar by the GT one as the R handlebar arms position was too much tiring for me. I would have liked also the R without the GT "sports screen" but I've still decided to get one for my R but if I do not feel any "justified" protection with that screen I'll sell it back.
