Me likey very much :biggrin :biggrin :biggrin It defiantly picks up a lot quicker, great for overtakes. As for engine braking I couldn't say whether that feels less or more. I shall have to get onto motorway conditions to judge that one. I've only been across town so far. Low speed travel in traffic doesn't seem to be any issues, no lurching forward or anything, though I am aware not to snap the throttle open too fast. Bike starts and idles as before so no issues there either. Very happy..... I'm sought of looking forward to some wet weather now to see how things behave then. So far so good. :thumbup:
