great stuff, I need to hear of rides and stuff to kick start my current lack of incentive and motivation


it's not my time to go, it's not my time to die
the last thing I want is for my family to cry

The Megatron ( ST1300) on test in Derbyshire. 245 mile day but no cake 🙁
After scaring myself silly testing acceleration on a dual carriageway and finding it can lift the front wheel, I took it around the lanes where it is amazingly agile for such a heavy bike.
V4 is very smooth, like a turbine, the torque curve is as flat as my first girlfriends chest.
Get out and ride them before age catches up and you cant.
