    Hey all,

    This was my bike, until a courier driver decided he couldn't see me (twin LED headlights and Roulette Green!!) and wrote my bike off on a round-a-bout. BASTARD, I loved that bike. :(

    So, when insurance paid me out, I invested a bit more coin (righto, a LOT MORE) and bought this!

    Anyway, needless to say the power difference is MASSIVE! Only had the Speed for 3 days and loving it so far, even with it's few little niggles!

    Cheers all,

    Pat

    That bike is awesome Pat ! In a roundabout way that idiot did you a favor. What are the "niggles" mate , as a matter of interest. I can't imagine that bike having any.
    Regards. John.
