Hi everyone
I've had my RSV1000r Factory for a few weeks and absolutely love it:inlove
However, my rear brake works, as opposed to most posts I have read about the rear brakes on these. (I think this is possibly due to the fact it has Sato rearsets, which seem to alleviate the problem)
The issue I do have is that it (The master cylinder) seems to stick out quite a bit.
I pulled up to a junction last week, went to put my right foot down and it got caught on the top of the brake master cylinder.
The bike started to fall over with me frantically trying to release my foot from the bike and in the end I managed to jump off to the right and hold the bike up
(God knows how I managed, pure fear I think)
I wear textiles usually, which obviously fit over my boots. If I wore leathers this probably wouldn't happen but other than wearing my leathers whenever i'm on it, or bicycle clips (Hell no!) does anyone have any suggestions as to what I can do to stop this happening again.
Does it look OK to the learned RSV gurus out there.
Any advice would be very welcome.
Cheers, Adz:biggrin
