My other half has a 749S which she lets me ride sometimes. Its just the same, you cant "pootle" around on it, the bike doesnt like it. Its not forgiving like the SV is, you'll need to focus on what you're doing to get the best out of it, its f*cking ace when you do though
Certainly very focussed and hoping I can get near to the best of it someday!

Quote:
I'm sure once you get your head around the different handling characteristics and power delivery of the bike you'll be riding at speeds you could only imagine on the Sv.
That would of course be the maximum of 70mph where permitted!

naked blue just a question whats ur postcode???? just wanna know so i know where to pick bike up from lol
Kept at SW1A 2AA but you may have problems beating the security system!

Quote:
Is it any better than the SV?
No!

Just a foot note though - Brembo brakes, if anyone is considering getting anything with these on it they are a little sharper than the wooden ones on the SV! Make sure you are planted against the tank before any heavy braking cos inertia is a biatch!

Love it. You have the same self control when it comes to "Budget" as I do.
