@@rafioo7jb One of the things that one CONSISTENTLY encounters when people review this engine IS its smoothness, and its LACK of felt vibration. If the blinkers are budget, the engine design is NOT. It is of RECENT, British design, and the FRAME was developed by Harris Performance in the UK, which RE has purchased, I believe, because the company's new head probably KNEW that at least certain things needed modernization, thus the ABS, etc. It's made to look-like an old, vintage bike, but it is smooth-running, and, of course, it's fuel-injected, which saves headaches, right-there.

If HE added Powertronic or Power Commander he would easily brake 200kmh with the TEC 2-1 or even a 2-2 headers get you close their is not that much difference only 1hp & 3Nm but 2-1 is 3kg lighter so performance is better but a Lithium battery will drop 3kg & 2-2 headers be similar as long as the 2-1 bike doesn't get a lithium battery.
