the fairing on this is wrong, so i'm going to put her back to the 'naked' look, nice and tidy and a decent runner, but it was a bit hair raising at times last night with the wind...............

Refreshing to hear someone bought a bike "cause it's FUN to ride" and not for a multitude of other bull**** reasons, i often wonder how many people do actually enjoy riding their bike as a lot are obviously more concerned about what they look like and what others think about them, hope ya enjoy it KKM.

I'm discovering the fun of going from a 600 Bandit (9 years) to a 1200. Only problem is that the fun is also being fairly evenly matched by the OOHHH,F**K,THAT WAS SCARY, OHH ****, THAT WAS SCARIER !! element.
Maybe a bit less throttle next time. Lots of fun though.

Tis why there are so many secondhand superbikes in the dealers and bike papers with only a few 100 or 1000 miles on and why the 600's are apparently the most bought size ;)

Have to admit it felt a lot easier throwing the 600 about than the big one but a bit of perseverance and practice should get me there (hopefully!)
