That's because you've clearly brought a girls bike you woos! Fairing, slipper clutch, predictable handling you are going soft in your old age! That said the thou does have some sort of back torque clutch wizardry which supposedly does slipper clutch stuff just in a less girly manner.

Oh and you do realise you are now likely to be responsible for Jammy turning into a purple smudge on a tree somewhere as he has now got first refusal on my bike when I finally get rid.

That is some funky front disc!

Nice bike overall though, not seen one of those before!

Looks mean. And those brakes look as though they'd throw you over the bars before you even think about touching the lever.

NTECUK is right. Piece of posing ****. Beer guts are for Ducati owners as well though.
