Build quality terrible , felt like loads power at bottom but really wasn't going fast 85 mph felt like 120 were as 120 on beema feels like 60 , was ok bike just no were near same league as sk1
After coming off a zx10 I hated my s1000 so much I tried to sell. It straight away , front end feel was non existent felt like I had to use the rear to steer . After sticking with it putting decent tires on 200/55 rear also , setting say to min not max ie 8mm I find the stiffer actually softens...
I called them after a message to call them regarding a new bike I'm still waiting but sane old story from every bm dealer I've ever dealt with Shame as great bikes shit dealerships
I'm using diamond read sets I was sceptical at price but thought if goes down on track spare easy and cheap . I was amazed at quality love them esp for ?150 and freer break gaurd worth ?40
I ride a 200/55 on my 2016 . Hp rim is 6 inch and standard 5.5 I pref the raised right of 200 tire in standard wheels seems to turn and much more front end feel for me . Not sure how the 190 will be on a 6.00 rim it was fine on my zx10
11000 m on my gen 3 since April only warranty been new head stock bearings ! I'd keep it until warranty is up then shift it will still be valued at 11k then and at least u will have had good use . My only gripe is not happy with bm dealerships bike is great
