No idea as i came along well after these two rolled out the door. Currently running in the T250 which is annoying. Going easy with the throttle is like resisting picking a scab Merch131 said:
Had a great day out at Dragstalgia this weekend, got to see two famous classic drag bikes for the first time.. The Hobbit and Pegasus, the former ran an 8 on the strip, impressive stuff..there were blown Vincents, Triumphs, Nortons, and loads of cars too..
Hobbit blew my phone microphone up at Mallory when I tried to film it. My brother rode 'Thor' the JAP engined, featherbed framed bike that was sold at Stafford in April. I remember its owner saying that modern Tarmac and tyres have so much grip the old bike clutches struggle!I also remember seeing Nero (or Supernero?) at the BMF when they did a demonstration of sprinting. Sadly a chap died when his Triumoh twin hit a tree, don't think they've run a sprint there since? Seem to remember that Pegusus was built locally to me too.

To be honest I was looking for an 899 ducati to replace my 848 evo but I am an impatient sod and spotted this last night from an mv dealer. After an hour googling the problems about throttle feel I had planned my 200 mile route to said dealer with a very rare day off in the week :-)Lets just say on the hottest day off the year taking my multistrada on a motorway traffic infested 200 mile round trip was not pleasant
The dealer and the f3 800 are all I had hoped for, incidentally the throttle feel and calibration on this bike ( 2015) is horrible lol. They are going to see if it has the latest up date installed but I will get used to it because the rest of the bike is going to be fun
