Yeah, what I found on the demo rides I did was that it was so smooth and effortless for the bike to get to high speeds (i.e. 130+) I had no idea I was going soooo fast....something I need to remember!

I love the way the thing corners, it's as good as the KTM for normal road riding....once I get used to it proper and have run it in I am sure I wont be disappointed...I put the cruise control on at 60mph through the b roads on the way home in 6th gear and managed all the corners without a worry, first time riding it so I'd say that's a capable and confidence inspiring bike right there

I want to wait until I need to replace the back (and front this time around) tyres on the rocket, when that time comes it's powder coating time for sure! Might even be ramair filter, rear hagon nitro's and progressive front springs time too by then....
