Very nice...........

There are a few BCRs out there with ‘most’ of the additions you have - save for gas-flowed heads and the PFM brakes.

I guess you are in USA?

How many miles are on it, and what condition is it in? How about some high-res pics of the bike as it is now - it would be good to see

Al :D
If I am ever on life support - Unplug me......
Then plug me back in..........

See if that works .....

I'm in the UK and 19500 miles. When it comes out in the summer I'll get some photos since the article in motorcycle News it was also fitted with high compression pistons high lift cams and I'm just looking into in to fitting brembo radial master cylinders and European switchgear .But finding and good pair of second-hand master cylinders is become more difficult than I thought it would be

What's it like to ride on the road?


Still smooth and tractable through the revs?

I think the engine modifications have pushed the torque and power higher up the rev range and the low down punch has gone for more power up the top end

What a beauty, so hard to find a good one these days, especially the red/white/blue version, but that looks stunning.
