I have never had any proper service or competitive pricing from those guys.
They also have the worst customer service I have ever experienced...
glad it worked out for you...

Thanks!
That is an understatement! Contact Oliver at ride if you need accessories, he went above and beyond on this one.
After the 100km ride lastnight I can say they each have a different riding style.
I noticed that the rpm's are set not to exceed 6k, I'm I better off respecting this?
Duke is my personal ''for short'' lol thx

According to the manual yes. But there are different preferences to how you break in an engine. I stayed under 6k 95% of the time, just with various engine loads (various amounts of throttle). Sometimes I pin it in 6th gear just to give it some load, but still under 6k rpms.
I just passed the 1000km mark and the RPM automatically set the redline to 11,000rpms and up.

Well during the 100kms ride I varied load as well threw 2-3-4-5-6, using engine breaking in each gear to slow back down.
Has your bike every shut off on you?
When approaching a stop I let in the clutch and the bike shut off
This happened 4 times last night.

Yes it did...when I first picked up the new bike it used to shut off about twice every ride.
I read one of the threads here that advised to bend the clutch pin a bit which helped tremendously. Now it only shuts off randomly once a week!
let me see if I can find that thread..

I'm going with Motul 300V. This bike gets HOT! 300V has a much higher tolerace to heat before it breaks down. I use it in all my race/sport vehicles.
