Spot the difference

There are nine eight differences & one minor oddity, but you're going to have to examine the picture at full resolution to find them all.
Click the pic to go full res, or right button open in new window.

Answers on a postcard please.

1. Sidestand vs centre stand
2. Seat
3. Indicators ( also front diff to rear. That's a crime!)
4. RAM mount vs grabby thing
5. Raised bars?
6. Rank grip vs no tank grip
7. Sensible extra rear mud guard bit
8. Oh. Carbon fibre intake bit. And rear bit.
9. If we're being pinickity then the bottom cowling is long vs short :D
10. Front mudguard extender


OK I'm done :D
What did I miss?

Impressively good - enough to spoil it for all other players.   :winkthumbs:   Oh, where are they?

5. Is wrong - it's just the angle of view.
6. Ohmigawd - I missed that myself.

You're only missing the 'one minor oddity'.

If it's the tyre profile I'm going to be upset/impressed but I'm sure it's an illusion.

Michelin on the left, Pirelli on the right.  ;D

But that's not the answer I was looking for.

One view is the near side and the other the offside...but I'm not saying which is which.

We have a winner! Well done Andy.
You pipped Matt at the post.

And no, I haven't the faintest idea why either. Did they run out of standard Akra stock? Or maybe someone had a gentle righthand side drop? (I did an HPI check for write-offs but there was nothing.)

My 2015 Motorsport also came to me adorned with the Designed for HP Akro,instead of the usual Titanium moniker? Must make them really special, only other one I've seen!!

Daft question but ... how do we as the "spot the difference" contestants know if the other can does/doesn't have HP on it?   ;)

You about to get sued Richard! How many HP logos before it's no longer an oddity?!

Thanks Rich! :D My "looking at the far side of the bike from a single picture" glasses weren't working as well as the should! ;)
