Im shocked by this post
I can keep up with and loose most bikes on uk roads..i ride with 999s' R1's and even gixxer thou's...i can pull 130 without effort and the 748R is over geared i pull 150 in 5th..??? struggling to get 130mph does not make sense to me....
I had a 748S before i had the 748R and even that pulled 130mph + easy.......................
u sure all is right with yer bike.....
do u want to meet up sometime and see how we go...
