      If you are ready to bear the high maintenance of the REs, then either of them is a good option.. Or else Karizma ZMA..

        I cracked up on this one I don't think you're going to regret your decision though. It's a rider's bike, that's for sure. The 500 does have some issues especially with its new hydraulic push rods, and factory setups are notoriously poorly done. I spend a fair bit of time at my mechanic's and I've seen every new bullet come in there for one tweak or another within 3 weeks of delivery...

        Happy riding...

              no it's not true...ZMA R is still in production...though it's a high time HH should launch a upgrade to ZMA

                  Hahaha! Right on decison, a very smart decison you re gonna love the R15. The new bullets simply lack the feel of the CI or even the AVL engines. They ve done something called the hydraulic tappets and have gone utterlly wrong with it I feel atleast on the 350s the Engine clatters a lot and it's inherrent to that engine, I heve seen a lot of UCEd bullets with a that irritating clatter, but have heard better feedback about the 500s but then again it's hear say and not personal expeirence. But as you ve booked the R15 all I can do is give you a virtual thums up and wish you miles of smiles my freind.. Let us know when you get delivery of your Japanese throughbred.
