U,
Nice write up.
Once you change out the stock rubber ( which will be the negative feedback once its reviewed) with a set of PP3's or similar the bike will flick better than all older versions.
It just seems Honda copied what other aftermarket companies have been doing for 4 years. When you look at the bike with exception of the tank we have seen all these changes.
If they where having trouble creating HP due to regulatory emissions restrictions they should have bumped it to a 1250CC and the tags could have remained the same. There has to be a difference in power between these two models..
Most people are happy with 80 RWH but thats not what the RS is or should be about, thats why the have the EX. They missed the boat IMO. They would have had a hot seller (i would have been interested with 115 @ the crank) had they bumped HP enough to catch the attention of the market. [/quote]
I hope its a hit for the company and this forum, I just don't see enough change to bring in a different group of buyers.
