Get ready for lots of this!
Having run a long-term MT-10 for the past year, this was one I’ve been looking forward to. That is partly because I reckon my modified bike could be a match for it, true, but then I’m bound to be biased! When checking out the SP, I did wonder what exactly would make it that much better than the stock bike, which is already a cracking road machine.
We already know just how good those electronic Öhlins forks are of course, having tried them on the R1M. And as a slightly shoddy stock suspension set-up was the stock MT’s undoing when the hammer goes down, this could be intriguing indeed to see what kind of difference it makes. Added to the golden legs and bum crutch is a similar colour dash to the R1’s, with a function ‘wheel’ on the right-hand bar and a few other different options.
