Its fantastic thanks Chilli - cheers for asking

It's actually a lot better than I hoped - the engine is so much smoother than my old 748 and the power really took me by suprise. Wheelies off the throttle easily in first and on a little private road I now it went to 140 in te blink of an eye and was still pulling, hard!

It's a much more roomy bike too - I'm 6'2 and I've had the seat raised and the front bars brought forward a touch on the recommendation of Protwins - there's so much room on the bike now.

So I'm still grinning, yes!

C2 was kind enough to let me have a go at the weekend too

Must say I never took to my 748 but his new 749s is a brilliant bike. I am now green with envy!
I can only console myself by knowing quite how foul he looks

Good for you - fantastic looking bikes.

My camera was flat this weekend so no pics yet - I'll get some on Saturday.

When do you get the R6?
