Never mind the skids, I've got my knees round my ears, the seats a plank, the exhaust sounds like a 'art race'.
Went for a ride............IT RAINED BUT my god handles like a dream.............not sure I do though.........On such a high, went home and gave wife her present

are you sure this is the bike for you , youve not been conned into it by these spoiled magazine writers have you paul

my brother has the gsxr750 he weighs about 15 stone all he complains about is getting thrown out the seat all the time and he has tweeked the suspention to the softest perhaps the roads are more bumpy up here , i think its called riding on the edge (good for track pants for road)

watch out for the cameras , oh and dont come out up here i dont want all that rain that follows you

enjoy though ,

BEEN OUT FOR TWO LITTLE RUNS................rained both times, polished it three times. and yeah does kick you out of the seat.
Each time it does you giggle the throttle a little and up comes the front.
Getting the hang of it now, got 88 miles on it now.
Running it in no more than 6,500 rpm but hits the 100 real easy, too easy..................good in'it

Its an interesting site, the Benelli forum have been talking about it for a bit but you'd have to be brave to do it with a benelli as they are fragile anyways, with a jap engine which is probably put together better then it would be interesting to try it once

He He hee!
Sure I've seen one...but it was on a twisty bit of road and it was shrinking in my mirrors rapidly

I was really interested to find out what stabilizers you had fitted but if you can't show us, No worries, I'll have a look at the next meet
