well today was the 1st ride on the new bike...and that 1200 has a whole lot more power and torque than I expected! I pulled away and my 1st words to myself were "holy ****". Was very impressed with myself though, no wobbles at all and was riding like I'd never been away from it - just need more confidence on the twisties next.
Took it to fowlups in bristol and back, so just over 50 miles of traffic, town and country driving - the wind picked up over the mendips which was a bit hairy but all good experience, and took it up to 110 on the way home. You really have to hold on at that speed with no fairing!
anyway, here are some pics of the beast hehe
