I bought mine back in May. Absolutely cracking bike. I find the seat a bit uncomfortable and mine has the touring screen which I don't like. The standard screen I found to be better after riding a mates. As mentioned the engine takes some getting used to. It sounds like a bucket of nails bouncing ar...

I don't think repairing the old one would be cost effective, you'd have to test ALL the other parts to ensure the shock of the failure didn't damage anything else.

What about British expats ? Are they allowed to vote by you ? Or should they have given up being Brits ? And all those people like Ralph's wife and the like, you know, the ones that keep up part of the British economy, have British born children who they'd like to have a good future ? You live in a...
