The RHP gives a harsher ride, I'm much more worried about damaging the frame and toe overlap occasionally becomes a problem (only when going real slow through bumper-to-bumper traffic).
+1.. I have a 07' langster and a 06' T1.. I dont use the T1 on the street for that reason.. the langster is built for the street.
