Same here.
Then in the Summer, UP is for ride mode, DOWN is for suspension setting.

Messing with the exhaust on a 160 bhp bike has to be expensive. It’s hard to see what even Akraprovic can do to improve it.

Realy - despite the standard exhaust also being used on all models including the 94 hp 1050 Adventure
They needn't worry, they aint got 160 bhp
According to one dyno machine. Mine will be going on another next year, so will be interesting to see how it compares.

But the before figures (rwp) are they not in comparison to what the bike should be making ?
You are correct I never did say
Never found a demo at my local dealers to have a test ride on to find out. My dislike of 21" front wheels comes from riding F800GS's and more recently owning a Tiger 800 XCX which I got shot of for many reasons including not getting on with the 21" front. Just a personal thing for me as loads of folk have no issue with 21" wheels.
Did have a look at the 1290R at Redline today as they have knocked £1k off at the moment but again no demo
Talking to the sales guy there - they have only sold two 1290 R's all year against 20+ 1290 S's.
That said they valued my low mileage 2016 1190 S at only £7k for a part ex so will be hanging onto it for a couple of years yet

They might be taking the piss on that px value.
I wanted £7k for my 2014 spec 2015 reg 13k mile 1190S but was offered £6,400 with the Touratech panniers removed and £250 off accessories so I was happy enough with that.
They also said I’d have got £600 more against an SAS, again with the luggage removed.

Possibly so but even if it was £8k it would still be £5k/£6k to swap and at the end of the day there is no way a new 1290 will be worth the extra

That’s pretty much how I viewed it last summer when I looked at changing to an SAS. It was only the drop in price on the GT that made me take the jump.
