765 Early Morning Blast Along The Coast!

Hi and welcome…..

 

Hi

 

This was another cool video! Great views!

 

'Bitterly cold' at 10C? That's pleasant riding weather where I come from.

 

It's ok, I'm just jealous.

 

Awesome road , great views and riding skills.
Temps are similar to my winter , but we're getting closer to the hot season, in the upper 30s, I avoid areas with even warmer temps in the 40s

 

I quite fancy adding an Aprilia to the stable. Maybe a Tuono. But anyway, the Superveloce is a lovely bike, if a bit stiffly sprung for our UK roads. It's done about 1600 miles and I think the ride has improved as the they've racked up, or maybe I've just got acclimatised after my Multistrada. It's no Panigale but it goes well, though you have to keep the revs up for it to really fly. The only thing I'd change is the exhaust. I like the look of the stock unit but the black aftermarket item sounds, and arguably looks, better. I still haven't seen another one on the road, and it does draw attention whenever I park it up. No serios reliability issues so far except the back brake isn't working properly. I'm fortunate that there's a dealer not too far from where I live.

 

I'll get a test ride on a Tuono one of these days. They look and sound like fun.

Yeah, it is similar to an i4 with the revs. It reminds me more of my old GSXR750 than it does my Street Triple. It's got a totally different feel and sound to the Triumph.

 

I missed the last part of your post, so sorry for your friend.
Recently a friend had a close call at 170kmh, only got a broken wrist and on the way to full recovery, the bike was written off.
Having biker friends in an accident always feels closer than one would anticipate.
