Is that 'hinge-thingy' in the middle of your chassis a BMW option? I just love the way that it allows you to tip the back of the bike into corners slightly before the front; obviously aids stability and probably saves on tyre wear too
I also felt the earth move when you 'snicked' it into first gear, doncha just lerrrrrve BM's gearboxes. Must have scared the other riders half to death!
