And I've just ridden back in the aftershocks of a flash flood... enough rain to bring all the grease to the surface, but dry enough to tempt you into ragging it

I know them sprints are wide but I'm sure you can stick it up a gap smaller than that!

Whaaa? You've normally got to ride to alps to have risk of riding down a ravine! Think of the money I've saved you! Gets the blood flowing don't it

Even something really sluggish handling and poorly suspended? Like a raptor

Its not a Harley, its far from sluggish handling.....thats what an SV1000 is for Although, it is slightly on the boingy side, but only for pie munchers. I have no idea where you get sluggish handling from, because 'if' you ever get to ride one, you'll find it better than your poxy SV

I just haven't been out enough on it yet, so am a little grannyish in style at the moment.
