Awesome, last weekend went down to Donington with the GF on the back to watch a mate race and when we got there it felt as if we'd only gone round the block. So comfy and easy to ride but when required it don't half shift along with a twist of the wrist. It seems wrong that you go from 40 to 140+ without changing gear!

The electronic suspension differences are quite noticeable and the Urban mode with it's extra sensitive TC and ABS adds a chunk of re-assurance when it's moist out there.

Been using it as much as possible, work, nipping to shops etc, and the only fault I've found is that I can see points mounting up very easily if I don't keep an eye on the clocks!

I've fitted a short Powerbronze dark screen to help out storing it safely (low roof) and it hasn't made a huge difference (looks a meaner tho) to wind resistance, the original will be going back on for the Le Mans trip in 4 weeks time.

Will post another updated verdict on our return!


It's not the size of the dog in the fight that matters, but the size of the fight in the dog.
