Just back from Germany, 700 track miles roughly 46 laps. The bike is a dream to ride the only downside 2 sets of tyres which is normal I suppose. the mirrors are useless that was expected. Laughing Laughing

Once the suspension was softened off it was fun, getting used to a twin again was interesting as for performance it was as good as I have ridden the only difference with having a Bimota you need plenty of polish to get rid of the finger marks in the car park ! Laughing But I can put up with that.
