G’day fellow Riders,
I have just purchased a low mileage Gloss Grey 2019 950S (Wire Wheel).
I previously had a 1200S which I loved. I put 55000 km on it, rumbling around the land downunder.
There are more km of unsealed than paved roads in Oz, so the wire wheels, 19” front and a more manageable machine for a man of my mature years, led me to the 950S. Initially I missed the grunt of the bigger engine but this bike is so capable in so many different settings that I am completely sold on it.
After a few weeks of ownership, I have decided to go to a 14 tooth front sprocket, to make it little easier on the clutch in the tighter spots.
I read the posts on this mod and they helped my decision.The website
https://www.gearingcommander.com/ Is a really useful tool that have used before for selecting gearing options. The “ plug and play” convenience of having all the rpm’s and speeds of different ratio changes is great.
I’m heading down to the Alpine region for a 5 day ride next week. 😀
