WHAT WORKS WHAT DOESN’T
Metzeler M9 RR tyres
Replacing the Oe-spec Bridgestone S22s with Metzeler M9 RRS gave better steering, more stability and great performance in the wet. Wear is looking good too, so far.
OE luggage
Being the Tourer edition, it comes with integrated panniers that carry just about enough for a weekend away. They are easy to remove and carry and are 100% water-tight. They do blunt handling, though.
Tourer tall screen
The Tourer also comes with a taller screen than the base model and while it is an improvement, there is still wind-blast hitting your head. Not being able to adjust it on the move is frustrating — should be electric.
