    I went out for a ride on Saturday with the sports bike guys and my t120 made a Valiant effort of Keeping up

    they were losing me on the Straits obviously but going round cornering and acceleration out of bends it more than held its own.

    The decat and remus has made a good difference to power delivery too.

    I am pleasantly surprised at how well the bike handles

    Does anyone else ride there bonny hard?

    I would like to, but since i got mine on 2nd of nov, every time i've been out the roads round here have either been wet, or the lincolnshire mud farmers have have been delivering their produce on all of my favourite bends.:mad:

    Have been known to scrape the pegs and make chicken strips fade away......

    Handling wise much improved after fitting Hagon Nitro shocks with springs tailored to fit my (considerable) weight plus progressive TEC springs in the forks.....massive difference

    Yes, sorry I forgot to mention I also upgraded to Hagon progressive springs up front and Hagon rear shocks, massive difference gained.
