Those who have not experienced this momentary loss of tyre traction are not using all 1200 cubes correctly. After all, what is the point of having power if it can't be abused !!!

That's is very true,I do ride like an old woman.

I haven't experienced this yet, having put 849 miles on the MR5's, including a few rides on some good curvy roads. I am fairly heavy on the throttle, especially when using the shift assist. That thing is just so much fun.
I have a set of Pilot Road 4's on my R9T and am very impressed with how grippy and well behaved those tires are on that bike. I was actually planning on putting a set of those on the RS but the shop said I should consider the MR5's based on the reviews they've been hearing from customers.

Reminder - no one experiences momentary loss of traction or wheelies unless in dynamic mode. No one experiences more prolonged slides, wheelies, or fun in the gravel without turning off the traction control.

Have fun out there. Well - in Bravo's case, I'm reading that the fun of riding comes more from who's above the pillion, and and less from what's happening below the pillion.
