its my daughters birthday party saturday but i might sneak out on it on sunday the ride home tomorrow is down country roads and i will take the long route.I will give another update on my thoughts about it when ive spent more time in the saddle,I am hoping its going to be much easier to ride than a big v twin

Don't rush home tomorrow especially if the weather is like this [SMILING FACE WITH OPEN MOUTH] your coming to the Wales ride too so that will be a good chance to get to know your new baby. I suppose their 2 different machines so hopefully will be a nice change for you [SMILING FACE WITH OPEN MOUTH]

Will be interesting to hear how it compares to the rc8.

Only one more sleep now

Interesting that you find IL4s easier to ride, I think Blade has told me before that he feels the same, yet I find the opposite.

I just feel more in control on a twin than a straight four.

Yes I definitely find il4 bikes easier to ride than twins.

v twins tend to be a bit snatchy at low revs ,once on an open they are nice but dont have that high revving adrenaline rush at the top end
my old gsxr 750 used to howl from the airbox at full chat,i loved that bike it was awesome

I do find the speed the best of both. I preferred twin over IL4 though.

youve got the best of both worlds a sweet triple

I think the triple is a great compromise of the two discussed formats. I'm surprised more manufacturers don't use it to be honest.

Wasn't the aprilla rs cube a triple ? Now that was a beast.

Its here, today is the big day

Have fun mate, nithig beats new bike day

Kwacky are these OK on the road ?

I notice there sold as a TD pad so just wondering if there OK when the brakes are cold and not getting regular use as they would on a TD ?

Can only echo Blades post mate.Enjoy today and have fun [SMILING FACE WITH OPEN MOUTH]

I've been using those mrr pads on the zx6r without problems.
