Jerry, that`s a very kind offer and I may well take you up on it. It is very difficult to find a dealer with a demo` S4RS. Reddog had a black one for sale but were reluctant to let me ride because of adding miles to it. Strange attitude given that we were, and still are, looking to buy two bikes. Needless to say, I wont be buying from them and they are my local dealer. If the weather stays good tomorrow I have an SD test ride booked. On another point, I spoke to a dealer earlier who expects the S4RS build run to stop within, perhaps, 1-2 years. Not sure if that is a good reason to buy one or not?? Could mean a powerful 696 style bike on Its way. Could make the S4RS a bit of an icon.
I`ll let you know what I think of the SD. One guy on another forum thinks the throttle is like an on/off switch........could be a problem then!!
