one for the 748 purists

[Rc1]

for those that have ridden and owned a later E vs an earlier strada or bip is the earlier one really that much better??

I know there are variations in some parts, bhp and electrics but are those differences apparent when riding them

A lot of the differences aren't going to be noticeable. A well setup E could feel better than a poorly setup BP or S model
Things like the non adjustable headstock or the different bottom yoke or the fuel pump not having quick release connectors aren't issues that most owners would worry about.
