Have the same model & it's the best bike I've ever owned. I was close to getting the MT-09 (full disclosure I'm a Yamaha fan) but after test riding the s1000r it was a done deal. It's everything in one package. Docile for around town & a missile on open roads and twisties. Fueling is 100% bang on. The quick shifter (up & down) is sublime. If anything, the engine breaking could be better but nothing major. If you want an all in one package its worth a look. Good review mate.

Thanks for the feedback 😊
Do you feel the 2021 mt09 is a solid contender?
