Been out for my first proper ride on the storm today, into Derbyshire, Ashbourne way and loved every second of it!!!! love the grunt of this bike.
Grin factor rated at 110% only down side is hitting the limiter in first and second!! at about 10,000 revs.
Awesome, well pleased with its road manners to.

Swines ! I was 150 miles from my bike and totally gutted. I watched and listened to the sweet music of engines howling up to the Blubberhouses.

It sounds like you're riding it like an inline four, no need to redline it in first and second with all that torque
Unless you really want to of course
Pleased too hear you had a good enjoyable outing
