Looks like the perfect upgrade for my versys, need to give it a ride but on paper it looks great and compared to the versys is actually rather pretty!

Read the Bike group test this month - the consensus was a 2* bike with a 5* engine.
I've tried telling him. He needs to borrow my copy. Looking at the seat unit and tank, I can see why they say there's nothing there to stop you simply sliding all the way up to the handlebars under heavy braking.

Stop trying to tempt me away, besides this is the lust thread not the love/want to marry thread!

I've heard rumours an MVF3 800 is in the making
Almost certainly given their new 800 engine in the Brutale etc. Only thing is whether the 800 would cannibalise too many of the F3 675s
Talk of the devil...

There's a lot of bikes I like a lot and that's why I don't lust after it. It's a technical marvel in its own right but to me that doesn't make me passionate about the prospect owning one (not that I could afford one!!!)
