  1. Lol! It was A127 at Romford
     
  2. My Local dealer has just received there demo, so you must literally be the first person to pick one up?

    Would be great if you could do a detailed write up when you get time so we can all get an idea of the differences. I personally haven't learned much from a few reviews where the bike was on wet tyres on a wet track! :)
     
  3. Nice, proper colour also
     
  4. Looks good! Hope you enjoyed the sun!
     
  5. Congrats...as we say here, wear well :cool:



    Be very interested to see what you think and how it feels on a day to day basis.

    What bike did you have or have you got now to compare it with ?

    :upyeah:
     
  6. Congrats...:upyeah:
     
  7. Looking forward to your report :upyeah:
     
  8. fair dues to you mate!
     
  9. Here goes?
    Only done 60 miles so it's not difinitive

    As for comparing, you can't compare it with a BMW HP4, it's apples and grapes!

    As for power, it's got enough to be exiting but no as grunty as a GSXR 1000 and the HP4 will leave it for dead. So that is the comparisons out the way!

    The throttle is smooth and linear like a 1 litre engine but you have got use the box more like a 600 but not as much

    What I do like is the front end grip, even on fresh tyres, it was very confidence inspiring

    Have not had a chance to play with the electronics yet, but will report back when I have driven it more

  13. Are they putting the Termignoni's on? At the first service? I assume they agreed to give u them free?
     
  14. yup they are, they said they will call when there in and just pop it back, no need to wait until first service as that could be a while due to weather. its loud now so I hope it wont be toooo much louder!
     
  15. Any chance of keeping me prisoner in your man cave for a few years? :upyeah:
