Evening all

Enjoyed my 4XV for 13 years and very recently purchased a 5VY. Bring on sunny skies and dry roads

Nice! What do you think of the 5vy so far?

The original 4xv is still a good looking bike. Someone parked his new Ducati 959 Corse beside my bike at the weekend, and the old R1 held it's own. I don't think the 959 owner believed me when I told him that the 4xv was 22 years old!
