This is definitely not our usual material, but you may have notice Mike has returned to make regular contributions on the site. He’s a bit of fanatic when it comes the tuner specials and felt inspired to write this one up. Let us know what you think in the comments! -dc RSBFS does not normally…
For riders of a certain — ahem — level of experience, the GPz model lineup was the quintessential sport bike during a time of alarming advancements.
