been looking into getting one of these for a year or two but now seem to have gone up considerably over the last 2 years, anyway I’ve bought a track bike sp1 which has a daytime mot and a few decent bits on it , twin arrow exhausts , ohlins rear shock etc , power commander ,anybody else had one or has one any tips or experiences , I love the rear end on these ( ooooo errrr missus)
Had an sp1 and sp2, heavy bike but fantastic handling and doesn’t feel heavy on the go, stunning bikes...can’t offer any constructive input other than don’t sell it anytime soon as they are going up, sp2 swingarm also looks better
Cheers well spotted on the swing arm , yes proper bit of kit , the exhausts are nice on this I’ve never seen the same arrow exhausts , the pipe bit looks like titanium I don’t know whether it is but it’s that dull grey colour
Big n heavy. Don't like direction changes, have to put big inputs to shift it. Holds big lines well. Get suspension and feuling sorted.
I had a sp1 it took a while to sort the suspension heavy thing looks and sounds awesome still think the 916 / 996 were better bikes
I have a 4K mile , 2 owner immaculate sp1 sat in my hallway Absolutely love just looking at it , intend to do a couple of hundred miles on it in the summer
At least they have gear driven cams not belts that need replacing every 2 years. Pros and cons. TBH I couldn't decide which one I like more 998s or SP2..so will keep both.
I always wondered why Honda did the radiator on the side of the bike rather than the front , there was an sp1 on eBay other day with 116,000 miles on it and still going strong
I have a SP1 and in standard trim, its old school ,with a few mods, its a better old school but for me, Its all about the noise especially on the over run.
