162 on the GPS, but I ran out of road, I mean track.
FFS! You're all beginning to sound like the Yorkshiremen in that Monty Python sketch. You all need to get together for a track day then let us know who was the last man standing - the official UKGSer XR riding God

I am glad I dont own one of these. What a wepon the engine feel and sound in the upper rev range is addictive. Reminds me of my ZX12R days and every bit as quick. No wonder thay are selling like hot cakes. For me the need to show restraint 95% of the time would be annoying.
The other 5% is worth it though

I'm no riding god, I can assure you.
It is annoying, and is the only reason I'd get rid of the bike. It's only a matter of time, tbh. I'm in two minds to get another XR later this year, or get one of those R9T Scramber special editions instead, and increase the chances of keeping my license.
The R9T scrambler is a crime against good taste.

Please will you let us know the cost of the 18,000 mile service on the XR. This includes the valve clearance check/re-shim where necessary and replacement of the fork oil.
Thanks

yep daft me! Still a lot of miles in 2 years. Must be a nice bike to ride the miles on! Cant wait!
Geoff said he took mine to 160 on a bypass but I've not gone beyond 130 because it feels vague to me.
We've them in stock
I like it
Until you get the the first speed bump!
All that money on accessories and mods and you couldn't remove the cat?!
