    Offset rear wheel

    Does anyone know the full reason behind the offset rear wheel in the 2023 bike? I guess its the same as the previous version? It looks very odd

    Thinking of buying a 2023

    Ive recently test rode a 2023 s1000rr sport. I much prefer it to last years model. The geometry changes have made the bike give more feel and feedback from the front end. Also the electronics seem really good and a step up from the older version. The engine seems slightly smoother and less...

    Abs removal

    Sorry to start a new thread but i wanted to descuss each issue individually so it doesnt go off topic too much. Whats the deal with removing the abs?

    Clipons and clearance

    Ive got really long arms so im finding the standard bars a bit high. Plus id like them further forwards but after just looking at my bike it would seem clearance could be an issue on the lock.
