Re: What did you do to your bike today ??
I was out yesterday for about two and a half hours, nearly went up to Stow myself but turned right at Cirencester and headed down to Swindon then on to Marlborough then back along the A4 home.
Wanted to try the Dorsoduro on the dual carriageway to see what it’s like at speed, the front end gets a bit twitchy but the plus side the wind buffeting was very light, a lot better the multi which surprised me. I reckon you could clock up a few miles in a day on it no problem, anyway after a ‘spirited’ ride the petrol light came on at 84 miles . So filled up in Marlborough cleaned the visor and off I went, followed a 20 plate RS6 Avant for a bit, driving like a girl he was

No. Rain, Road, Dynamic, and Dynamic Pro. You can also switch the suspension from Road to Dynamic. TBH that's quite enough for me to cope with and I only really use Rain and Dynamic.Perkles wrote:Has the XR got user mode ?D6Nutz wrote:Took the beema out for a spin to Lucy's, was disappointed with the lack of breakfast, was cheered up again with great cake.

That's a great angle.... look at the size of the front wheel! It's like a cartoon. In a good way.

Went out with Perkles but it was far too hot, too much traffic and loads of road works.
The MV does not like the heat.

That's a good looking bike. I like that a lot.Kwacky wrote:I saw the 2020 brutale in black and silver and it made me have funny feelings in my pants
What amazes me though is all the Italian flair and design skills and they can't do better than a shitty disk reflector on the front..

That’s going to make a very noticeable difference I’d say, be interested in how you find it post tune.BenL wrote:dino tune, should have it back in a few days!
