I agree with Red it’s just ploy yo sell more R models,I buy mcn every week and have done for years so I am well aware that they are all bought men,regards the RS having too firm suspension it’s bollocks,my RS suspension was set to road setting when I bought it and it was abit too firm for me but nothing like as firm as my 09 R model, I’ve since put my RS suspension settings to comfort settings and it’s now excellent for Yorkshire’s bumpy roads.
