I have only ridden a few around campsites etc but today i went to pick up a 1200 for tyre & hardware fitment. Ok it was in the rain however i do see now why the loyalty to the bike. Climbing on again i was reminded of the ease of access, the comfortable seat and the easy balance of the bike. Flashed her up and the sideways pistons somehow made me feel good. Twisted the throttle & away we go down the R27....smooth through the gears, responsive and the bikes quite nimble. Pulls like a train from the robots & feels like there's no end!
No chain clatter, very little vibration and just feels so dam comfortable! I likey :ricky: Can't wait to ride it home...
