Taken it out for a short spin so far. Wow.

Needing to stop putting the same sort of twist of the throttle compared to the YBR. I'm at 30 before I can even blink!

Great looking bike! Love the Matt black detailing. I teased myself last week by having a brief go on one at my local Camrider's

So far, all I can say is. Wow. Again.

Actually had a chance to see how it accelerated. I think a Jag XJ [i know!] that was beside me at some lights took offence :D

Bippo: Yeah, I'll hit up Snake Pass soon. Not brave enough yet, until I have the feel of the bike more.

Slice: very true! Still having a few issues changing gears at the lower speeds - I keep finding neutral - but this is just getting used to a new gearbox.

I'm going to do a reaction video - I filmed my run on it. I'll upload once done :D

Well feel free to give me a shout if you want a chaperone over Snake Pass or other roads round here. We can bimble along together.

You do realise that you'll now definitely need to join us at the next Squires meet... Only caveat is first-timers have responsibility of printing the t-shirts...

Will do!

And Squires... I really should pop along for that, shouldn't I? Given it's pretty much my birthday weekend.

I think there are 2 words that spring to mind regarding T-shirts. One of them is "off" :P

Nice looking bike, after you have some miles under your belt you will get used to the new bigger bike, just take it easy for now, then later when safe to do so get that right wrist twisting and see what a big bike can do, you will love it.

Enjoy and stay safe.
