Hi , I'm newby on this forum ,
just bought a black RSV 1000 2003 ( ZD4RPO120 ) in good condition , 
bike is not delivered yet I will pick it up tomorrow for a long ride 350 kilometers fm my residents 


I've been reading specs for 2003 which was actually the last RSV mille and came accross to below :

In 2003, the gear ratios were changed to give a slightly closer ratio gearbox, the exhaust system was changed and the tail piece and front mudguard were redesigned.


So if any one has experience was this closer gear ratio upgrade noticable fm previou Milles 2001 - 2002 models ??

  
Here is the bike :

Welcome Petros, nice bike Clap

I'm not too sure what the exact changeover date was for the updates but I had a feeling it might have been the RR  codes.  I'm probably wrong though, I expect someone else will be along shortly.

As to benefits, don't really think it makes a great difference tbh, the magnesium engine was freer breathing and had more at the top end compared with sheer low down grunt from thr earlier twin plug engines though.

Looking forward to the next track day
