Thanks for the good advice. I will most certainly be taking it easy on the way home, and for the foreseeable future. Especially since there is some rain forecast for tomorrow now.

You're right that there is a lot more power there than in the knackered Suzuki that I learnt on, but I was pleased that the throttle response was not too vicious so slow town riding on my test ride was OK. Just as well since I intend to ride it in Bristol, where traffic is plentiful and slooooow.

Thankfully I have a mate giving me a pillion over to collect the bike, and to ride back with me. He's a sensible chap so I'm not worried about him egging me on.

Regarding the advice on not pi$$ing the public off with loud cans, I totally agree; however this bike already has High Level Termi's fitted. The baffles will be going back in for commuting. Might take em out for the weekends though ;-)
