Same here although I’m not first on the list. No rush either as I work away from home and don’t normally pull the bike out of hibernation before the end of February at the earliest.
Confirmed that it will be 24th Dec (ffs) dealer closed then so will be Jan , hoping for the 19th Jan my birthday as the full system off the trade in and protection film to be fitted to the PP .... cant wait , got the heated gloves ready....any dry day is a riding day no matter if + or -
I’ve ordered one after seeing it at the show. I test rode the V4S recently. Loved it but but was very happy to get back on my 1260s. Sportier riding position and twin grunt. But seeing the PP I was very impressed with the look. Also thought the riding position was better for me. Seems they had a ton of orders from the show and the earliest I’ll get mine is June. As an aside I was surprised how many E bikes are springing up. Won’t be long before all the big players are launching. Also sad to note that many of the small business stalls were missing. Was told by one large stall holder that many regular stalls had bit the dust due to COVID and some to brexit. Very sad. Webs like Sportsbike Shop are the equivalent to the large supermarkets and will dominate sales putting many smaller indies at risk. Sign of the times.
There is a review online .. https://www.motorcycle.com/manufact...tistrada-v4-pikes-peak-review-first-ride.html
What utter rubbish, spent most of the so called 'review' whining about his crappy gear and the weather
Review? More like a how not to prep for a test ride…… Sounded like a normal day out over here weather wise though lol and it would have been nice to hear some decent thoughts about how the bike handled the conditions. Hey Ho.
It’s poor isn’t it? The only other review I can see on line gives a similar lack of detail. I’m wondering if there is some kind of embargo on write ups until later next week. The ones that have been posted are little more than click bait.
The V4 tail tidy is now listed on the Evotech website but not yet ready to view or order. It costs £250!!!
Well depends how you look at it 1% cost if the new PP , a meal out , a good Gortex walking coat , al relative to what you want. Good value for me so will order one . The bike needs the back end reduced a bit so the time they take to develop and also the quality is worth it , you can see cheaper versions but they do look a bit mechano in construction , the description they give is worth a read .
