Nice muffs!

And a lovely box!

I was out on the bike briefly this morning testing out the new addition. I was wearing summer gloves with the heated grips on the lower setting and my hands were too warm. Muffs rock.

I'll reckon you do maahhhooosive wheelies judging by the size of it

At least the bike is ugly enough to not be spoiled by the addition of a t*p b*x.

What do you think of the Versys? I'm thinking of getting something similar to replace my D**v*ll* winter hack.

It doesn't need the box on the back to be capable of mahoosive wheelies

I absolutely love it. For my useage it's ideal, not too fast, not too slow, handles like it's on rails compared to any standard SV I've ridden, great brakes with the ABS fitted, huge luggage capacity, 225 mile tank range if treated reasonable well, 200 miles if you do a bit of caning. It's the most comfortable bike I have ever had the pleasure of doing any distance on, in as much as I don't need to stop to rest myself when it needs filling up.

All in all I don't regret buying it for a second. If I have one gripe it would be that it lacks a little power for overtaking, but to be perfectly honest I'm quite happy riding at fairly sedate speeds on it anyway... oh, and the finish of the chassis parts like brackets and fasteners isn't what it could be (not quite as good as an SV if I were honest)
