Hey mate, good to see you on here again.. its a long ride to your joint from here, :shock:

Thought you were going to change to the Interact..Metz? or you wearing these out first... :twisted:

Had a few squirmy moments which could have been anything from tyre pressures to setup, road surface, braking and just me being an idiot :lol:
What do you think of the BPForks on your.... errr..... "non-kwaka" ??

How about you come to Adelaide, you can wake up your old bike which is sleeping quietly in the garage. 8)


Yeah will wear out 016`s first before going to racetec Interact. Only slips was when i got alittle carried away before scubbing in properly, they seem ok now.

I love the BPF`s after backing off comp and rebound a little, good feed back and just great in the twisties.


Your the long distance rider mate and besides everyone would want to hear your touring review of the 10 :D

I got a chance to look at Jonno's bike in the flesh today, and I have to say it looks much nicer than the photos make it out to be. Keeping the bastard clean is going to be the big issue!!!

I picked up your twin in Sydney today - 8km on the clock. Intermittent showers so I was tempted to wait but who can wait?

It really does look better in the flesh and was set up beautifully for a 6ft rider - thanks Neville and Chris at Penrith and Andrew at Rydalmere. You sit lower into the bike than the 08 and it feels good. The lower peg setting mean it's not as tight on the knees. Didn't go far as the rain was building up but the sharper turn-in is obvious even on suburban twisties.

The 08-10 models are really good value at current second hand prices but this is a whole class above and will clearly be the benchmark for 2011. Can't wait for the weather the clear so I can find out what it can really deliver.

The RRP is $19,999 + ORC of about $1,210 in NSW but you may get the dealer to donate some/all of the ORC. It usually depends on whether you're a regular and what else you buy. Hot deals are hard to get when it's a brand new model.
