Why would you need a 955? you might as well buy a Massey Ferguson :P

Great bike :) IMHO, the swingarm is a bit too plain / simple for it, it could use something more "worked out", along the frame lines, but it still is a cracking bike nonetheless. :)

I'm oh so enjoying it, it's a cracking bike. Comfortable, solid, reassuring. It's not a monster to ride, quite the reverse in fact. After 4 months I can honestly say that there's nothing I don't like about it. Handling's good, it turns damn quick, it inspires confidence. Not as buzzy as you might think, although it only starts getting really intersting at 6 - 7K 8) 8)

Now did you all hear that!!!!!!!!!

Well I'm biased of course. I just love this bike, it's fabulous. And, I'm very proud that my bike kept a skilled British worker in a skilled British job, and put money into the British economy.

Did anyone spot the POS in the background? No, not the Clio, although that was merde too :lol:

As you know Ed, I'm kind of fond of these, not my cup of tea anymore but if I was to be in 600ss country then I'd get one of these even over a new 675.

Glad you're getting on alright with it, have you setup the suspension or left it standard?

Cheers Mark.

Standard, but on the hardest setting. Open to ideas....

I'll have to see your riding style and way you sit on the bike, but I've setup two tt600's and Daytona 6 to the great pleasure of their owners.

Remind me at AR06 and I'll take a look.

Cheers Mark.

having seen the above bike in my mirrors i must say it looks good
from the front but from the side i think it needs a decent looking exhaust on it, something like a remus or scorpion?.

i look forward to riding it soon to give a proper evaluation of it. :lol: :lol: :lol:

What he forgot to say was, 'having tried my damndest to get past but my wheezing Thundercat was too slow, it looks pretty good from the back too' :lol:

Yep, spot on that man!!! That's my old Hornet.

Bit harsh, calling it a POS, I think Hornets are alright.

Yes it is harsh, just a figure of speech... it was a good bike.
