I think that manufacturers should let pay less for the first batch of costumers.
They can save something on the R&d costs .....and let us to find the first problems in their product.

RLC Ric.
I prefer that a product is tried and tested, but back in Dec/Jan they informed that all the testing was done and on sale soon. Based on that people make plans, buy other parts in readiness and then nothing, in fact barely appearing to answer any questions arising from the aforementioned announcement. Sorry Dean, but communication is key ;-)
I still look forward to this but was looking forward to something near the beginning if this year, not the end based on misinformation :-?

Chill :-D

Not listening to the hype; think I will sit this one out and wait a while then see what breaks first gears selecter or cluster; i know it will all end in tears it usually does; thinner bits of metal just break quicker,

I'll definitely buy a 5 speed gearbox,
2 years after release,
if there are no bad reports.

Of course the other thing manufacturers should do is shut the f~ck up about products that aren't ready yet because the expectant hype gets them nowhere.

I have mentioned that BTW ;) , but to be fair RLC are new to producing their own performance parts, which explains their excitement to shout about them.
