    They just appear common, obviously being the fastest they will all arrive at the destination first so at first glance will appear a lot until the slower colours eventually turn up!

    I hate too admit it but I do like that Garry
    I think it does need the wheels spicing up a bit though, wether that be colour or just rim tape

    I think blue tape at front and red at the back to be different

    Or as much as I hate gold wheels if they match the stripe on the paint I think it could work

    I must agree that the colour scheme looks amazing,
    But I do also like The Repsol....
    I'll sit on the fence and let the others fight it out in a Harry Hill Style.

    Ooooooh You're brave. Especially after reading the contents of this thread. You have seen the shit Jamie got and still want to swap HRC for Repsol???

    I was considering changing my bike after reading the many posts on ABS,although I've never had a problem with mine.
    Has anyone changed back to standard brakes from ABS? I do like my bike but that's always in the back of my mind,what if?

    I've had my ABS REPSOL ;) for almost 3 years without a issue. and it's been used for fast road track and touring. I would suggest that if the times right and you want a new bike to maybe change for non ABS if you feel that is right for you. But I would not change to a Non ABS if you have had no issues

    And lovely looking bike

    On a trip this summer we watched a chap get it all wrong on a bend and end up 50mtrs in a field still sitting on the bike, he had ABS, doubt he have been in one piece otherwise

    Thanks for the replies, just undecided what to do. In a perfect world I'd have an ABS system that had no issues!
    I wonder if the SP has a different system that works as it should? It's a lot of money to find out...

    I wouldn't worry too much the HRC isn't quick enough to be able to need the ABS ;)

    Yes that is true, but I quite like the digital speedo on the HRC.
    Apparently the Repsol does away with that and comes with a factory fitted calendar instead.
