Oh, and while we’re talking about Subarus and skid plates, small advice

Yeah, but I just thought if Kawasaki wants a downspec’d (and hopefully cheaper) H2, they probably have to lower engine output, and to do that, they most likely go down on displacement. Because it’s not sensible to lower the boost (it’s already very low) or limit the engine electronically (it will be hacked in no…

How will they downspec H2 to R2? Make it 600(636)cc?

It’s not on the same class, because as of now all classes prohibit any forced induction

No offense, but you’re saying that R1 is a bad choice because it sucks as lifestyle accessory, compared to those “sexy italian things”. And they aren’t really that exotic. And they’re bikes, which means that for majority it’s just another sportbike))) Fun fact: that Desmosedici (i.e. true exotic) I’ve posted on Oppo…

*sigh... Adding another entry to my “desirable bikes” list.

OMG, stick welding ((

OK, I signed up for test ride, selected 883 Iron, whatever it is)))

Do you really think Honda of all companies would underspec a machine of this price?

Good points, except braided AN line is VERY motorsport -ish thing too.

Titanium AN fittings then! )))

Wrote some explanation, not sure if kinja let you see it outright, but it must be there, under “show more replies in this thread”

Exactly, AN or JIS braided line would be perfect
