I once yurned after a Ducati. I bought it and rolled onto the drive. With a very hard stare Sam asked me for an explanation. Don't worry I said, I'm only test riding it. For how long she asked? I replied, about three years....to be honest, it didn't wash so it may not be the best advice...

Surprisingly, it's no harder than the 650 because it doesn't drop as far. Excellent! :)
I must admit, the image of this has kept me amused all day. Good one Mick. :laugh:

Took it out for a ride and loved it. Took it off road down some lanes and found it was more agile than the bloody 650 (how the hell does that work then???). :blink:
