Actually managed to put some proper miles in....

Bought my X in November, but the weather has not been on our side, so only really sat on it on Thurs (To bring home to sell the exhausts)

Really love the little thing (as usual), the handling really does take a bit of getting used to, it's exceptionally sensitive to movement on the bike when in a corner, any unsettling totally throws the bike all over the place. But once you get a bit more used to it, it seems to accept things better

I love going through the gears hard to the throttle stop, looking down at the clocks and seeing the speedo registering 85mph not 155mph lol. It's great.

Took the nasty B roads and this thing just eats them up... so much that if i'd had any other bike, i wouldn't have gone out at all.

Had to clean it 3 times on Friday LOL.

Only downside is that i've done all the financially viable mods to the bike (LeoVince exhausts arriving Monday to replace the Beowulfs) so it takes very little spannering now. NEw levers arrived and fitted, the short ones were just a bit the wrong size for me.... we'll see if these feel better.
