Welcome to the forum, you have the same bike as me [emoji3], great choice. What mods have you done? Tell us about your biking history, what bikes you liked and what you didn't like so much. What do you like and dislike about the M?

For me the sound is the let down, remove the cat with the Accra on and its offensively loud with the cat on it's too muffled. I had de-catted banger before the M, well three actually, not at the same time, and they sounded awesome , light years better than the M, however the M more than makes up fir it when I ride her.

Oh and the other day a de-catted banger pulled up behind me it sounded awesome , my wife wasn't too chuffed at me winding down the car windows so I could hear it better, I think it was the fact that it was raining lol

Oh and pop over to the newbie section and introduce yourself there, you will get more replies from the very nice guys n gals we have on here [emoji3]

Anyway welcome

Stephen [emoji3]

I know my brain ain't working right mate, the other day I went out in the sunshine, warm and dry and I didn't enjoy the ride one bit, went out the following week and again warm hot weather and I hated the ride until the thunder storms arrived, got soaking wet but really really enjoyed the wet ride , the R1 performed perfectly on wet roads in power mode 2, so what's that all about, I know I used to like riding in the rain but now I seem to prefer it [emoji15]..... it's got to be an age thing
