Re: One day, five test rides.
So after riding these bikes how do you feel riding your Versys now? Sometimes we salivate after expensive or 'worthy' bikes but an unpopular bike may suit us better and makes us feel great. It's just that our ego wouldn't allow us to say so in public. I'm so happy riding my little Hyosung 125SM around our roads here in Malta, even much more than riding more expensive but heavier bikes. Its manageable and fast enough to pass our slow moving traffic. A new set of stickier tyres and a new chain will make it better still.
Of course I won't dream of riding your motorways on my little Hyo but I'm trying to make a point that maybe your Versys is giving you so much fun but you're too distracted to notice. |

Re: One day, five test rides.
sod the looks, when you are riding it the grin obscures the view...
judging by the size of risers for the flat bars on my 03 the Mille will be very very wristy. at this point in time i think it is the best bike i have ever ridden and an absolute keeper. |

Re: One day, five test rides.
In comparison with everything I tested yesterday, the Versys brakes fall well short. I was riding back and actually kept going hot into the corners. Had to take a check on myself and slow it all down.
