    Hi!
    Owned a Daytona 955 since 2004. Various ups & down, including engine rebuild. Sadly, engine started making unhappy noises again, and I couldn't face pulling it all to pieces again.
    So it went, and now I'm the proud owner of a new Sprint GT SE.
    Cheers,
    Graham

    OK! As requested, this is what a bog standard Sprint GT SE looks like...
