It's a great bike, to be honest. As a one-bike-fits-all it's superb - 170 bhp, trackable handling, 300-mile range, loads of storage, comfortable and laden with toys and luxuries.
Mine too!! LOL 
TBH, if I don't sell it I won't be that upset. I just wouldn't choose something so big if I was looking now unless I wanted to do big miles, which I don't really any more. Plus I fancy a change of course.Skub wrote: Mon Feb 01, 2021 4:23 pm Damn fine cycle man.i have no clue on KIM prices,but surely anyone on the market for such a bike wouldn't walk by that one for any other reason.

Looking forward to some warmer weather, take the top box off and maybe I'll fall in love with it again Yeah they are big beasts for sure.Slenver wrote: Mon Feb 01, 2021 4:27 pmTBH, if I don't sell it I won't be that upset.

But... since the last service and a big software update, the handling was completely transformed and I've only ridden it the 30 miles home from the garage since then
Yep. Not necessarily that bad a thing, but I'm tempted by something like a Street Triple next - something very different in scale.weeksy wrote: Mon Feb 01, 2021 4:28 pmYeah they are big beasts for sure.Slenver wrote: Mon Feb 01, 2021 4:27 pmTBH, if I don't sell it I won't be that upset.

Sometimes that's all it takes. The lockdown was a catalyst for change with me. My bike use had dwindled over the last couple of years,then suddenly to find I wasn't allowed to ride made me realise how much I wanted to.Slenver wrote: Mon Feb 01, 2021 4:27 pm Looking forward to some warmer weather, take the top box off and maybe I'll fall in love with it again

Human nature,nothing if not contrary.
Mine was done over 18 months ago and a couple of days after it was done I set off for a Germany trip to give it a proper test. Total transformation of the bike! Mine would have gone by now without it.Yeah, it came out between services for me and I didn't even know about it, so had it done in September but for various reasons not used it at all since then.scottyuk wrote: Mon Feb 01, 2021 10:38 pm With regards the software update on the suspension, you waited too long
