welcome in pal, enjoy what we believe to be the best bike forum (we're a 'brotherhood' of bikers
) in the world** so join in/ask questions/post pics then you'll feel involved
i may be slightly biased but i think the 5jj is the best one because they took the original 'ground-breaking' 4xv & very carefully sharpened the looks & made the riding experience smoother- sweeter
heres a pic of mine in the fasterer blue as we all know.
** other lesser forums my be available
