Looks like a corker [THUMBS UP SIGN] I'm going to be bike shopping in the coming months and as much as I loved my Daytonas and I love the look of the R's I just don't like the face down, arse up ergonomics of sportsbikes. Good luck to you in your purchase though.

Very nice Andy. Didn't realise you was going for the new shape, great choice. Hope this year I will get to see it at one of our ride outs [SMILING FACE WITH OPEN MOUTH]

Very nice bike. I keep getting tempted to buy a 675R even though I thought I'd had enough of sports bikes. But it just looks so good.

Very nice, if I'd had an extra 2k in my budget I would have gone for the 675R. Or maybe the 848 EVO!
