Bugger!
I'm happy with the motor in myS2R (and the colour) but the uprated running gear in these new ones would make me think,as I'm in the process of replacing the toy brakes with standard ones,I just need 320mm discs now. This had made me realise that to match levers I need to do the clutch side too. ....and then I found I've nowhere to mount mirrors,all minor niggles really but I think the brake option etc should have been on the S2R in the first place. |

The 1000DS is a top engine but I'm not sure that I would pay the extra money for it fitted to an S2R compared to M1000Sei which I am sure you will be able to pick up much cheaper and apart from the swinging arm and exhaust is it really that much different?
