That's interesting - I had an identical VFR and found it put too much weight on my wrists. Lovely do everything sort of bike but after the briefest of rides on my 12s I knew the Honda would have to go no problem with the viffer as I may be 6'02" tall but in 6'07" fingertip to fingertip ( ...
The bars were below the yokes on the bike I tried. I'm 6'02" 15 stone, xxxl hands, size 12 (uk) feet. The whole of the riding position was uncomfortable that's wrist,neck,back,knees and ankles...being 61 does not help where the vfr is comfortable straight out of the box . I think Im going off p...
Further to my last :cry: I've tried my first 1100s.......... I found it too sports orientated in its riding position when compared to the Honda vfr800 It was a really nice bike but......I don't think it's going to be for me. dunno why as I loved my 1150gsa ( "52 plate") I hoped it would re...
If is the KTM I think it is you won't be disappointed. They are ever so easy to ride the trails on. Just like a big 250. Me personally would fit a Rekluse clutch. No more stalling but is does take the engine braking away. And you are in the right part of the world to enjoy it. R1100S is now of such...

Still looking for the right bike :wink: but I'm in the middle of a large building project so may give up unless I trip over a nice and more local private sale. :lol: So I sold the viffer and defected to motoguzzi sport http://i1313.photobucket.com/albums/t557/magwa56/20170404_142720_zpsjnaq9h02.jpg ...
Bike is now just for pleasure on nice days......but I live in wales 😆 so rain is the norm :wink: I doubt I've ridden 2000miles in the last 5 yrs, :oops: Gulp :shock: I only ride for pleasure in the right sort of weather, and I've done nearly 5,000 miles on my 1100RS since I last July. The c...
Magwa, that looks a good bet for you. Al. Yes a nice one, I'm just looking to find a younger model 8) with lower miles but this one does look the part . Free bump to the top :wink: You're falling into that trap again ....... Yep. ....... it will be a 1100s paint job by you when I find the right bik...
