I'd be interested in how you get on with them. I'm finding the ones on the vfr a bit too thick, I'll give them another week to see if I get used to them.

So like gripping a semi, as opposed to a raging hard on

PS. Black screws look good on the screen. Do the same for the race filler

If your semi is thicker than your full erection then yes, it's identical

That's a question for the wife

I asked my wife. She said yours is skinny either way.

Very sweet. I love that yoke.

I was reading over the weekend how the first MV F4 design was intended to be the Ducati 998 by Tamburini.

Both iconic designs. I think the F4 looks fresher but that's probably because we see more images of the 998 being published.

That is a thing of beauty

I've give it a quick wipe down.

I need to change the headlight but it's a bitch to get to. It looks like I need to remove the side panels to get to it.

When you cleaning it Looks like D6 owns it

Looking lovely Kwacky

hit the 3000 mile mark today. Good day out on the bike, the right sort of roads to remind me why I bought a sportsbike. As the day went on my confidence in the front grew so I started to carry a bit more corner speed. The front lifts under power and the bars waggle, both keeping your on your toes and reminding you the bike is more capable than the rider.

I havent ridden the 660 since I met Kwacky and Frankie at Lucy’s, forgot about the fact I lost one of the baffles on the way there, so took the other one one out today, it’s a bit loud for my tastes so need to get a replacement baffle.
I thought about going out this afternoon but the pull of the sun lounger got the better of me and I’m half pissed on G&T

998 looks like the culmination of an older school of thought. The F4 looks like the first of a newer design philosophy.
It's Hurricane vs Spitfire all over again.

All serviced and checked over. No issues found with the bike.

220nm needed to get the rear wheel nut off.

Bike booked in next week with Addison Tyres for the new rear.
