Do you mean a750 or a 1000 Keith?
The 750 is beautiful to look at, very quick steering and excellent handling but the engine just doesn't have enough go. The 1000 is an animal which needs a power commander to sort the fueling. Spares and servicing shouldn't be a problem now Proton own the company although the servicing costs are as expensive as Ducatis but only 4000 miles apart expect to pay £250 at 4000 miles and £525 at 8000. Reliability on Evo 3 engines is very good. Finish is also good.
Insurance is a real problem - try Footman James. Comfort isn't too bad as long as you're not too tall - I did 1600 miles in 4 days on mine and it didn't hurt too much. If it's an itch you have to scratch then do it
