First impressions....

Did my first proper rideout on my recently acquired R1100S today and really enjoyed it.
I've owned about 30 bikes over the years and Id say this is the easiest of all to ride. It's very well balanced, gearing is spot on, there's a smooth torquey engine and that weird telelever front end is a joy in the bends. The bike doesn't fee that quick but it's bags of fun to ride and I can't wait to do it all again. I didn't know what I was missing!
I stopped at Knole Hall in Sevenoaks for a quick photo shoot on the way back. Will post them when I've got them off my camera and worked out how to upload to the forum.
Im sure I wasn't the only Trixter out today....
Cheers
