I absolutely love these and the only bike I would ever consider replacing the R1100 with. They are stunning.
I would however enter a new world of ABS and other such internet documented gremlins, so I always bottle it.
Perhaps one day...
Let us know how you get on with it.

Loved mine - but it had the heaviest clutch ever , and was the main reason I sold it. There is a mod available that helps a lot I am told.

You can also fit the slave cylinder from a K1300 too which helps
