Im after a CR to slow me down a bit... Speeding is a little bit too easy for me on the R.

My black 1125R has done 4800 miles. Its just had a service at Blackbear. New rear tyre 300/400 miles ago. Excellent condition...

Any takers before I spend out on converting my front end to a CR? PM me if interested.

How would a CR slow you down ??.......how would converting the front end slow you down ??......to change to CR gearing would require new pulleys, belt and swingarm.

I doubt that a CR will slow you down much ! But a CR is much better round town than an R - the change in gearing makes a real difference, as does the the more upright riding position - at least on a 2010 ...
