Hi Paul, did you demo the XR and Multi? Was talking to winger today and he would be interested to hear your thoughts on both bikes, and I spoke to my mate Steve on Sunday (I mentioned him to you in the pub) he and his wife have just chopped in there H-D's for 2 Multistrada's 😳 he absolutely loves it, says he's happy with the standard suspension (as opposed to the skyhook) straight out of the crate.

HI guys sorry for the delay, been to the TT :)

I am testing the new shape multi this week but have ridden the recent one and loved it. The only real stopper was fears over reliability with a second hand multi, but the new one is over 2500 more expensive than the bmw too

Will report back

Got the XR today

As per many others, right hand bar is a bit buzzy / vibey but otherwise what a bloody thing

RS was just a bit short feeling for me in terms of legroom, but for me the best r series built yet in terms of riding (apart form the specials)
