I didn't think the new RT quite lived up to what I was expecting, still very nice, but it still felt a little squat and heavy at a standstill to me.
The single cam RT I had was a great bike which I really enjoyed, it's only problem was it felt like you were ringing it's neck sometimes to get it to overtake with any enthusiasm. That's where the K16 came in, effortless riding with instant overtakes, they are truly fantastic high performance touring bikes which handle perfectly.If you haven't already a test ride is essential because the ride so much lighter than they look. They're only downside I found was the refinement , they were too refined ! I once rode none stop from Derbyshire to North of Edinburgh and at the end of it I didn't feel as though I'd done anything it was so effortless, it left the itch unscratched if you see what I mean?
What's this about Rainbow losing the franchise?
