        Handle feels heavy and front tyre is not stable on corners but I hope it will settle down soon as the tyres are new.
        Some pics:
        Give it a week, I faced the exact same issue when I changed my tyres, it took few hundred kms to settle in and once it did , it was bliss, and I'm on motul 300v since may , my oil change interval is 2500-3500 kms, bikes is still fine at almost 5000 since the last oil change, but I think it's more ideal during the summer.

        P.S. DO NOT QUOTE the entire picture set when quoting or replying to a post with pictures, remove all pics before quoting.

          Same guys were testing FZ25 a month before its launch and I was lucky enough at that time and shot few clips.
          Hi Arv, Did you get a chance to see the presence of ABS badge or rings on either of the bikes?

            Frankly speaking I forgot to emphasize my focus on those ABS rings in excitement.. I think it wasn't there, but not 100% sure.

              Oh. Hope you see the bikes again. Please look for the ABS if you get to see the twins again. Would love to get a confirmation on that.

                  How come they have white plates? Don’t test vehicles have some different plates?

                    Those are temporary plates. UP 16 TC ... TC stands for temporary registration. Even the FZ25 which were being tested before its launch were having same white plates with TC numbers.

                        Benellis have poor after sale value, similar to the kwackers, also cost of parts are too high and service intervals of 4000kms is a bit low.

                            R3 is a very capable tourer, many people keep questioning is the r3 as committed as the r15 then have to correct them and say it's a sport touring position, should pretty comfortable for long rides, I'd say with the r3 you have more than enough power for the highways, it's capable of cruising at 140-160 ish.

                                Yes, boss, the R3 can do 300 kms at one go. Even a splendor can do 300-700 kms in one go if you keep the speed at 65-75.
