Hi one and all

Just thought i would let you know about my first ride in anger on my 06 wing
Not a long ride epsom to bognor and back 100 miles all round,bikes i went with are 07wing,cbf600,klv1000,varedero1000 and fazer 600 you will pleased to know im getting used to the "hinged" handeling and have adjusted to a smoother style,I led the way down having to slow down on occasion to wait :D it was a lovely ride smooth and quick ,wasnt tired at all.
On the way back managed to scrape side stand and belly pan on bends so can now say although not sportsbike like it will go around bends :afro:.
Stopped off at local meet on way back at box hill only 2 scoots mine and a friends wing all the "big men"bikers giggled a bit but when i pointed out the chicken stripes on their tyres and knee sliders that would only see tarmac if they fell off they calmed a bit and we had some good banter (i only have maybe a mm virgin rubber on the left and none on the right)so started to get a little respect by the time i left,all in all a good ride and the more i ride the more i love the wing

hope you guys have as much fun as me

john

It was great weather, wasn't it. I went to Portland, That's Dorset county in the UK not Oregon.
