Oi You! That's what I was going to say...

Except that I did a 400 miler up to Yorkshire and back in a day a few weeks ago and I was a bit creaky afterwards even on an ST2. Having said that it was the way my leathers bunch up at the back of my knees that caused mucho soreness, and the way the new Shoei lid pushes itself back into my nose and chin at any reasonable speed that caused most of the discomfort - Only a mild twinge between the shoulder blades could be put down to the bike.

Yep, the ST2 is a much underated bike - like a comfortable SS and I've never been left behind.

If you do get one, make sure it has the big engine like my one has in it, not the small one like Glyn has got

PS: That's a joke by the way, but it's my only explanation as to why Glyn arrives half an hour later than everyone else at the pub - although he could just be a tight git
