I would love one Andy but probably not as my main bike. If I were 10 years younger it might be different.

Re: Panigale 1299S road test ride

I intend looking for a s/h one in a couple of years, Blade.

I would want to take it on track now and again as that's what it was designed for and where it works best and i'm not sure i would want to do that with £17k+ of 205bhp sportsbike.

Re: I've gone and done it!

I had a CB500 a couple of years ago. They're a hoot to ride and sound great with a slip on. Love watching them race.

Re: Experienced travellers

Don't mean this distastefully after kingfixers post but have a great time Kwacky and Duke. Euro trips imo are truly epic and to be savoured as these are the good times we will remember in later years.

Stays safe and stay fast 8) enjoy the good times guys (lol)

Re: Experienced travellers
