Mike ,

The GSX-R 600 is a brilliant bike, my ride confirmed how things have moved on in the last 8 years. The CBR was boring in comparision, but I'm sure the RR would be good.

Never done the Alps on a sports bike, but loved doing them on my GS and a KTM, so can't wait to go back. I'll have to see how much time I can get off for boys holidays this year. My wife's a steady, safe rider, but in her first year on the SV so a tad slower than me.. I may have to do 2 trips one on our SVs and another on the GSX-R.

The only fly in the ointment is there may finally be the opportunity to do an overland trip to Egypt at the end of my current contract. Had it planned out for a while, damn so much planned and so little time.
