Re: what have you done to your

Are you not going to try the KTM and the Aprilia? Very different to each other and different to an il4. No doubt mate but not impressed with KTM build quality and their reliability , that aside both the KTM and Aprilia are several thousand pounds over my budget, if I get either an MT10 or S1000, it...

Re: what have you done to your "bike" today

Not today but yesterday I went out with Deshevelled. Have cracked 1100 miles on the Ape and am gradually getting used to riding it. It was pretty horrid up on the grouse moor.. http://www.corbridge-net.co.uk/grousemoor2.jpg I was also testing out the "Multimedia Platform" which connects t...
