I write this assuming that the front brake uses the same rotor/caliper/pads as the earlier models. From the photos they all look the same.

I wonder if the speedo accuracy will improve with the 19" wheel.
ABS will keep the rear brake from locking up, a real problem on my RX3. I installed the optional rotor and now the front brake does a decent job (not two finger stopping like on my dear departed Duck or Guzzi). When I run the 19" front wheel my speedo is within 1% of the GPS speed.
