Just took the 748 out for a 30 minute shakedown run from the improvements I did over the Xmas holidays.

Its now a little easier to turn and less extreme riding position without losing any of its sportsbike feel. Very pleased with the money spent ( adjustable bars and new ride height adjuster).

I also wore my AGV Corsa lid for the first time which i bought at the NEC. Its going to take a little getting used to i think ( and hope). Its a very different style of helmet to anything I have worn before and totally designed for sportsbike riding.
