Ha ha Robert, I did't mean to crash my Valk, a recent widow wanted me to rejoin her late husband !  :angel:

The Bagger DCT is more modern of course (I don't know where the oil filter is, I'll have to check in the user manual) : DCT, GPS, Sync brakes, electric shield, heated grips, smoother rear shock absorber, better headlight/beam, better mpg but the side cases are useless and after 6,000 km I'm still not that confident in U-turns and handling at very low speed. The fact is that the bagger is less powerful than the Valk (100 mls/h and you keep waiting for more to come that doesn't).

I was not in Paris lately during the joyful events you saw on TV, I wanted to keep pristine the legendary Parisian bad mood !  :2funny:

But Robert I insist : you should give the Brembo/TWR Lucas pads a try. Of course, the rotors feel the difference and I had to change the rotors after 100,000 km but it's so easy to do it and the comfort of a more decent breaking is priceless.  8)


Pretty funny and very glad the widow did not get the best of you.

Thanks for the quick rundown on the DCT wing, was wondering about it.

I will look for the pads and maybe new rotors because of your recommendation. I did change the rotors on my 1500 Valk to the wave rotors and it did make a difference. My rotors are currently a bit worn but still in good condition.
