I've ridden F4 1000s and 312Rs at Jerez and Donny, you get used to fuelling quirks on bikes. If they have them at all that is. All bikes are 'different'

They're both motorbikes and hence have already spectacularly failed to clear that bar :D

Triumph, but only because I've owned a bike made by MV Agusta, bolts used to come undone by themselves and the engine self destructed.

If you're going to buy an MV get one that's still in warranty.

Is it even worth buying an F3 if it isn't an RC?

I'd have the F3 over the Gaytony.

1. It's prettier
b. If you believe the MV figures it's fasterer
III. it's prettier
Four. It's not an ugly lump of cack like the Trumpet.
*****. It's prettier

Mate has an F4 750, lovely looking bike, luckily for him he has Italianesque stature, he binned it on a track day & parts have been either £££ or rare as hell or both, but he's patched it up & rides it when it rather than polishing it 👍
