    You need to get down to the local pool to clear your head and turn in a dozen lengths of butterfly to get your shoulders re-tweaked!

    They’re a bit sluggish off the line... best give it a real handful and dump the clutch!

    I had the 650 version of that Dilli - very capable and sure footed, very smooth and very easy to live with. Much nicer fairing than the Bandit it is based on too.

    My 1250 was a fantastic bike, I had it just short of five years. Really eats up the miles on the motorway and not to shabby everywhere else either. I put a Fuel "silencer" on mine which shed a few tons and improved the sound somewhat. One tip, lubricate the coils. The coils can rust a bit and as they are rubber sheathed they expand against the alloy head and can be a right bastard to get out. I broke one and at £125 each it's a costly do. Other than that, I also went to a suspension set up engineer who set the bike up to my weight for £40 and that was the best £40 i've ever spent. Hope you enjoy it once you get your limbs sorted.:cool::cool::):)

    I’ve actually got a carbon fibre Quill end can and a Vance&Hines end can :)
    They’re both outside in my scrap pile :eek:
    Can’t remember if they’re off my old Fireblade or my old Bandit :confused:
    Will dig them out and and have a look if I get the bike :)
    (Probably will :p)
