They are fantastic value for money.

Only thing that takes a while to get completely used to is the engine braking. Few weeks ago I went out early and knocked it down a gear entering a corner for a quick exit and the rear wheel locked as there wasn’t enough grip.

Yeah... Not really had much to do with twins to be fair. Had a few gos on my old mans 888 SP3 totally different ride to a 4 cylinder. Cracking bike that was he sold it about ten years ago. Wish he still had it now. Id bite his arm off to get it. Was only 23 then though with no Dollar! :)

@ TimDogg -
Great pic of the black one. Apart from the serious side of things, that has GOT to be fun!

I blagged an older version of the white one, at a winter test, for a few laps of Philip island circuit. You're right, the chassis is a gem and, to be fair, the engine may not be all that threatening but it's not bad either. Lucky man!

@ barryrs
Nice. I like twins. Is it all stock or PowerCommandered?
Never felt all that at home on an RsV, despite wanting to like 'em.
Had some blinding rides in company with 'em though and they sound ace. I guess people are either Ducati shaped or Aprilia shaped. 8)
'06 RS4(B7)Avant. Phantom black Black optics Privacy glass SS+ Buckets Roundy-roundy steering wheel K&N. Black is never gonna fade!
Also red '94 2.8E Coupe quattro.
1.9TDi Avant. Bl&&dy good workhorse.
Bessie the Tractor. International BD414, oh yes!
Ducati TTF2, Spondon Ducati F1 & random other bikes
