I'm new to this forum but I was hoping someone might be able to confirm whether a 2014 Versys 1000 has linked brakes or not. I hope 'not'.
Looking at reviews for some of my favorite bikes, I was surprised to find that the reviewer didn't mention this particular piece of, IMHO, very important information. I know there are pro's and con's to linked brakes,
but I really don't like them.
Thanks in advance. |
Good point. Sorry. I currently have a CB1300, an Aprilia CapoNord 1000 and an Aprilia Futura. I moved to Lincolnshire (from Kent) recently and was a little shocked to find how 'rural' it was, with quite a lot of mud and stuff on the roads. I've decided that perhaps the CapoNord is the 'best' bike for here, but it's not quite the best bike available, as much as I love it. I'm thinking of replacing all my bikes with something that's maybe a cross between the CB1300, for 'poke', and the CapoNord, for coping with 'not clean' roads.
I have considered the Moto Morini Granpasso or the Moto Guzzi Stelvio, but then was surprised to find that a 1000cc Versys has more of what I'm looking for, without going up to a 1200 and the possible weight penalty (e.g. VFRX - 275 kgs). I know the BMW GS is considered the 'best' bike, but I'm afraid it's not my cup of tea.
Thank you for the replies. It's appreciated. ____________________ Tinman1711 |
