I rode a buddy's VStrom and thought it was going to throw me over the handlebars.


I feel an 1125 is in my future.

R or CR??

The slipper works good except when slammed into first. It will still slide it a bit.
It will also let you know when slowing down that it doesn't like to go slow, or run below 4K
