But I will set up a test ride on the two in May, just cos, well, why not!! LOL :lol: :lol: :lol:
Test rides are for cissys, just buy the pretty one.

TBF, if I actually had the money to hand, the MT-10 would be waiting for me right now!! :angelic-green: :lol: :lol: :lol: I even went off the super dooper MT10 cos the wheels are boring in comparison!! (and sure, I really don't need all the fancy doodahs!)

But, as I'll be test riding and very unlikely to buy this summer at the least, I'll go be a cissy :D :D :D

Mmmmmmmmmmmmm :wub:
It does indeed look :wub: :wub: :wub:

I guess I'm being picky about wanting an IL4 (that's a triple, no?) but also, I think that would suffer (for me) with the bars being too low :( :( :(


Bloody love the look of the Diavel too - I know, I have suspect taste!! :lol: :lol:

Yes, it's a nice thumpy triple, I liked the R version they did before, with the round headlights, Arrow exhausts, nice bom bom bom budom dom pop pop as you rolled off the throttle.

I still love the idea of another gurt twin or a thumpy triple, but I don't think it'll be possible sadly :(
