    And the poor neck bearings copping a hammering on touchdown because there is not enough power to bring the front wheel down gently

    why? it only wears the clutch, chain, sprockets and headstem. with a good sprocket combo they have plenty enough power to wheelie all day long. with my 65r and 14f it had no problems, you could bring it down softly aswell.

    you can get aftermarket roller neck bearings instead of the normal ball bearing one. would help for stoppies too

    breaks ill have no excuse and its my daily commuter.
