Thanks, Steve. That is indeed a helpful guide.

Go onto Boxertrix there's all the info you will ever need and some,the thing to remember no matter which model 1100s you look at they all steer the same(That's crap) just that some are taller than others which can make for a complicated life when changing suspension,and if you want to speed the steering up on the very last cup Jeeze that will make for a very tall bike.

You will find most opinion goes with a stocker and all the bells and whistles if you can find one with them on.

But and its a big BUT!!! Ride one they are a real marmite bike I've had mine 16 years I've loved mine to bits and hated it with a passion all on the same day  ::)

Nice, but I can never work out why producers think we need clashy music to drown out the sound of the bikes; not bikers I guess!

Great video but, yes, the bikes' soundtrack would have been ample for me also.
Although I currently have an IL4, for pure soul and that "more motorbike" feel that Steve described, it's got to be a twin or perhaps a triple for me.
