Maybe we could get together and have a ride into Wales soon if you like. Tomorrow i'm going to the Brighton Burn Up with another seven bikes ranging from a MV Brutale to a Suzuki Burgman 400 and another five maybe's. If you would like to join us (everybody welcome) we are meeting at 8am on junction11 of the M40 (Banbury) then head to the Ace Cafe and then to Brighton. regards. Mick

Regards Kelvin 'Just looked at the pics of your bike....loverly!!! Red shocker really does stand out. I wanted the Black too but, J&S in Birmingham offered me the white one for £4700 and the rest is history. After the run to Brighton yesterday the bike has done 6070 miles and had a new rear tyre fitted this morning. Like you say, there isn't any noticeable vibration probably due to the rubber mounted engine, pegs and handlebars. But, i found that the mirrors weren't much use and the handlebars a little low. So, i bought some Handlebar Risers (about £45) form Cradley Kawasaki and Mirror Extenders (about £17) from ebay and that has transformed the bike. Petrol consumption i'm getting between 61 to 63 to the gallon and a best of just over 65, that is a range of over 160 miles to the tank full. The only thing i am disappointed about the bike are the tyres. The Dunlop Roadsmart work great when they are really hot, but on commuting to work or any short rides i found them a little inadequate. Next i might give the Bridgestone BT023 or the Avon Storms a go.
Best regards. Mick
