Hello,
I've been riding my RSV1000R (purchased 30,000km used) for almost a year now and love all of it's attributes. My affection may well change now that it has to go to the shop thanks to a transmission issue which sees me unable to select a gear (boo hoo).
Although I've ridden bikes reasonably continuously for over 30 years (first bike a Norton Commando) I don't consider myself an expert rider or 'pegscraper' and simply enjoy using my bikes as a primary form of transport rain, hail or shine. Since owning the RSV I am beginning to consider buying a second bike, or getting one of my two Cagiva Mitos running as the RSV isn't really suited to everyday riding in town and is no doubt contributed to the gearbox issue my bike is suffering.
I look forward to hearing of others experiences and wisdom regarding these bikes and in time hope to offer advise myself. It would be great to hear from other South Australian RSV owners too as we seem to be few and far between.
Cheers and safe riding to all.
