  10. You'll love the 848 but will be a bit of a shock if you haven't ridden one before.

  13. Hi I got my 848 yesterday, its the best looking bike ive ever seen, Im just addressing ride height issues at the moment as Im vertically challenged, I had a bimble in the light rain yesterday and could not believe the presence of the thing, small children wave, men look in awe and envy and women look at you with lust in their eyes!:Woot:
    All that at 5mph!:) The bike sounds amazing with standard cans, cant wait to hear some Termis! I think when I go to my usual Sunday morning haunt this season it will certainly shine even in a sea of £13k shiny new Jap stuff. Enjoy and take care, not long to wait:upyeah:
