  1. Cheers, at 6ft2 it feels even smaller than it looks lol I'm sure I can cope for a year or two until insurance sorts itself out!

    Hi all, I've just bought a 2017 MT07, I've had bikes previous and really wanted the new R6 but as I have 0 NCB (I haven't rode in 3 years) insurance was coming back at 3k+! Hopefully I've made the right choice, a bit worried about power being low and considered a 16 MT09 but the size and throttle issues put me off a bit and what finished it was the tiny dash. I've asked for an alarm and tracker to be installed (which I think I've been charged wrongly for) and looking to get a disc lock and possibly a ground anchor for the garage. Just trying to get insurance as low as I can. Currently in Portugal in 43 degree heat so I pick it up on the 10th with a full akra, led indicators all round and a tail tidy. I feel I'm being robbed on the price a bit but the service has been absolutely brilliant letting me sit on so many bikes and spending what seemed like a lifetime in the show room. I'm from Kent and going to be looking for some groups to join (who ride fairly sensibly) as even though i have a few years experience im not as good on a bike as I am in a car! Thanks!
