After my day getting blown away at Cadwell I was a little disheartened with my little Duke but after going out for a ride with mt ex-racer buddy on his TL1000 down the local Hemsley 'TT' route I feel much better now....
I was able to keep up with him easily by using the creamy midrange on my mocheen.
I forgotten what a usable bike she is on 'real' roads - and I'm glad to say that my recent spate of mods has finally paid off as she is just so comfy to ride....
(But I'd still love to try an 888 sometime
)
