  8. Hi Rob, What part of Devon are you from. I'm from Bideford but work in Dorset during the week. I had a test ride of the Panigale from Riders at Bridgwater, it was awesome! But the wife won't let me have one:frown:

  9. Hi all, it's from GT's, I'm in plymouth so was easier for me and the price was right! Be shelling out for years but what the hey!? I was close to going for an 1198, but I knew I'd always want the 1199 lol!!
    Abe: I explained to my wife it was like her being able to own an Aston Martin (which she loves), and suddenly she understood. IMHO the Panigale is the Ferrari of the bike world. Their are faster bikes, but better looking?....I think not :)
