As promised to Oli, a little write up of my group trip to Europe last year. I still had Z1000SX at the time, but one of my mates was on his (then) S1000RR, which now belongs to me. We aim to do 7-10 days trip every year and this time we've taken ferry from Portsmouth to Santander, Spain, and...

Is the long brake lever travel before the brakes 'bite' normal on our bikes? I am used very little travel on my previous bike and not sure if this is normal on RR's

Tried search but can't find any info. Couldn't find an answer in the manual either. Can the gear lever position be adjusted? If so, how? It feels a bit too low for me. Thanks.
