I'll never get those pegs hitting ground lol, still got a good inch wide chicken strips on the rear for a start! I need more revs available to get over further...not comfortable using 6th and hard leaning...

I'll review it after I've had a few more weeks on it, so far so good though, it's very refined and easy to get on with...I need to turn down the traction control, it's interfering already at 5k ish revs when nailing it on corner exits and overtakes lol

I'm guessing like mine you can go into the rider mode and pick out "off road " on the traction control.
Or just turn it off.

Yeah, there's t1, t2 and off

I may only be a cyclist today but I still have right of way! Bloody cars forcing me out of the way.

Ah welcome to my world, nearly got taken out IN the cycle lane in Trimley, and then had to weeve around a car who had occupied the cycle lane before the traffic lights, despite there being plenty of room in the road.

Cyclists jumping out of junctions, assuming that just because they are going slow, I will be too. Get crushed minions!

Corrected for you, they aren't cyclists in my book

Just watched a banking advert, which had nothing to do with banking, but a lost scarfe

While we're on it, car adverts that try and sell you a "lifestyle" rather than a car.
