    Going to have a looky at a 2019 765 rs street triple on Saturday, I know it's fairly new but is there anything I should look out for? also, how do you find it on a long ride out, does your back or wrists hurt?
    Having come from a 99' cbr600 and a bit long in the tooth (56) I want something a bit more upright but still with decent power and midrange.

    Any advice muchly appreciated :grinning:

    Hi Daffy,
    Welcome aboard. You will be pleased to know you are not the only duck around :grinning:
    I have the 765R and it is a fantastic bike. No issues with wrists or back. Quite a hard seat so sometimes get a bit achy in that area :joy::joy: . Fantastic bike :blush::blush: Plenty of power

    Brother, I've found you!!!!!!

    I like the F-35B Lightning II and Apache AH-64E helicopter if that helps? Oh and the wife's out at work while I fettle with bikes in me garage :joy:, not sure about machine guns, but I do like a L96A1 Sniper Rifle :p

    Oh no not another one! :p
    I hope you’re not as much of a Duck Egg as the other one ;)
    Welcome aboard fella, and do remember to put some pics up if you get the bike.
