Had a bit of a bike barn dance in the last 24 hours.
Bye bye MT09, Sherco and Beta Rev 3.

Re: Hello...
For me it has two wheels, engine, will go thru fuel/tyre, and be a great laugh.
Any tech lovers will probally be quivering wrecks at Big Kneed Al (master of the emergency stop & "stand up" comedian) the options, especially with the Big Mans Wanger satnav connected.
At handover Ivor (Big Mans Wanger sales) started going this the display customizations, riding / suspension modes...I just said leave everything on standard as we could be there for hours.

Re: Hello...
The Iconic spec was a fluke for me to get.
I had planned to swap my MT09 and FJR for a R1200RS thinking about using the RS all year round, but when I looked at the pictures of the Iconic then realised it was a numbered anniversary edition , well I just could not run the RS thru shitty salty roads, so the FJR stays ...for now.
The RnineT and RS Iconic, so similar in so many ways, yet so different.

Re: Hello...
It's a very nice bike indeed, the wee bit of fairing blends in the boxer twin nicely.
