I think that having the 1 screw bottom will actually reduce the possibility of tweak, but it may flex a little more than with 2...

Tweak is when it flexes and stays that way in my view...

Nice bike. I'm working on getting a R6 for this spring. Now I just need to find some saddle bags or something to fit my rc gear in.

Of coarse it's going to be a good car, they fixed the "problems" with the R2, and gave it nice new upgraded graphite.
