Hi all, New here from Surrey. Just awaiting arrival of my new SP2. Impulse buy having just sold the Panigale 1299. Test rode the SP and fell in love, I hear the 2 is just full of win! Also looking for some bits, exhaust being the first
Hi, welcome, and congrats on the purchase. Many would say it's a backward step. Looks as if you've got the tail tidy happening first up. A couple or few of us sitting on the fence at the moment over exhausts. We hereby elect you to buy an Arrow and report back!!
Backwards from the 1299? Tbh I wasn’t enjoying that bike for the road and it’s a weapon in its own right. I’m not and L twin guy I guess. I’m looking at all options, from what I’ve seen on YouTube so far, racefit wins on noise followed by arrow I’d say. I quite like pipe werx but not sure if the gp van is a bit to old school looking, undecided
Yeah, that was my thought process. I thought the Panigale 1299s (and others) were the bees knees. Perhaps I'm over swayed by public opinion, OR, they really are not quite what they're made out to be. I have no means of comparison though, but can say that the SP2 is a brilliant machine.
Oh the 1299 is full on aggressive beast of a bike. Attracts more attention than anything I’ve ridden. When the weather is nice I want to use it more ie commute included and when you’ve got akro cans with no baffle lol that’s not fun. However it’s more that below 30mph they hate it and it’s meant to just go fast. It’s torque is incredible!! Great bike but for now not for me. Friends black edition with race fit
