... bike though. I believe its noticeably better than the 2012-14 bike, which had electronically adjustable suspension which the 2015 doesn't. If it were my money it would be 2015 1199R, then a 2015 1299S and lastly the 1199R 2012-14. The 1299S has a lot of the equipment that the £50k Superleggera ...

Made me a bit sad to see the parents and looking unkempt and scruffy yet they were all stood around with iPhone 6's and new samsung phones. Does that make me sound snobby? because I'm really not.

Re: He's a lucky to get away with that

Hmmm...which tells me that Sir Anthony was not actually using said zebra crossing (no doubt fitted with belishas) and that Bourne had stopped prior to "pulling away".
