The roads were dry this evening
With the last rays of the afternoon sun today the roads finally were dry,still salty ,but dry.
So I sneaked my new( ex scrapps )M900 out for a bit of a ride.As I was advised a bit lumpy at low revs but 3000rpm and above ,it flies ,what a lovely engine , so smooth and tractable, no where near as thumpy in the hands as a Guzzi. I had ridden a friends ST2,I imagined the Monster would be similar but its a lot livelier.
It's taken me 54 years to get around to a Ducati,don't think I would have bothered with Guzzi's if I had ridden a Ducati first.
Now, better go and make sure it's not got salt lurking in the nooks and crannies.
