Both feel slow and boring Wink.

Apart from that, the Mille-R (now factory) is supposed to be a pretty decent performing bike.

In the end, it depends on the rider most - both in how fast they go and how they feel on the bike.

For instance I preferred doing distance on an RS250 than a CBR600F!

I've ridden an SP-2, and my mate has just bought a RSV Factory.

I haven't had a go yet as he's not putting it on the road until the end of the month. Crying or Very sad

But the SP-2 felt too big (as in Lardy).

The Mille Factory is a Sharp looking tool, and it's got loads of extra toys on. Thumbs Up

Is it just me... Or does anyone else actually prefer the old Firestorm to the newer SP-1 and SP-2?

The only head to heads I've found were these two but bare in mind it's the Factory with Ohlins alround and snazzy wheels... so you'd expect it to be better? right?

Old Thread Alert!
