    I decided to take all the HRC bodywork off the NS today and try the Rothmans look. I did the Rothmans bodywork a few yrs ago ( I have 3 sets of NS bodywork), but never put it on till now.

    I still think the HRC livery is my favourite

    I actually vote HRC. I love Rothmans, but a good HRC wins here! It is not the same as my Rothmans kit which has yellow number plates at the rear.
    Either way that is a beautiful example you have there Stray!

    I better take the bike with both sets of bodywork for a long term test to decide. You're welcome in advance.

    Rothmans for me please. I rode one of these when they were first released, and then a VF1000F2 at the same time. I was amazed at how little the NS needed to lean over to take a corner that the big VF was well heeled over on. Shorter wheelbase maybe?
