Fwiw I've always have fancied taking one for a test flight too Cav & Rossgo.
We needn't bother now, of course.
...... we can just "borrow" Blade's, or Daytona Andy's & not have to worry about any of those dealer's compensation clauses.

Wouldn't mind a ride on an R1 but that is wide and my little legs just don't allow me to have the confidence of dealing with it at low speed or standstill

It's a well known fact that Ducati owners are hung like a horse so Ducati have to build in extra leg room to allow for that when designing their motorcycles.

There's even an official option shipped with all UK bikes to help the owners feel a bit more secure with themselves

Every bike should have a single sided swingarm.
They look stunning and make getting on and off a paddock stand a simple and easy one person operation with no wobbling or fear of dropping the bike.

I already have the end cans Rossgo and was one of the main reasons I went for this particular bike.
Glad I do too as their pretty rare and not seen on many bikes mainly as the ends cans are £2500 and the full system is £4000 which is ridiculous regardless of how special they are.
