I remember! I came within a gnat's chuff of buying that little black lovely you ended up with. I love my SL, but that's a special bike and I was a fool not to have snapped it up! Ahhh, hindsight.....

My current dream bike would be a 1000ie engine (big bored to 1082 by Sigma, Testarossa heads, slightly lightened flywheel, FCR41s - about 106bhp) in an 888 chassis (Mag marchis, brembo billets + master/cyls, painted carbon, ohlins R&Ts, penske rear)...... sorry, I appear to have gone off into a dream...
