It rocks!!! Dunno about the power yet, have to brake it in first. It steers a lil heavier then my K5 but is MUCH more stable in corners. Damn, it feels like it on rails...
Brakes are good to!!
WOW ! That is SOME GREAT LOOKING MACHINE!! Be sure to add yourself to the registry (as odonata warns) and get yourself a gallery album to upload full sized photos of your new baby! If you need assistance, you can e-mail me the full-sized photos to info@mvagusta.net!
Very nice bike. :conveyer: Looking better and better. MV Manhattan, interesting stable with RS and K1200s. Interested to get your impressions on the difference.
Thanks! I had a bit of difficulty justifying keeping them both, but the fact is they are very different. The RS is much more comfortable but still sporty enough that it holds its own against sportbikes. Took it cross country a couple years ago and was quite comfy. The S is an animal and lots more fun to ride, but i dont think i could do a 700mile day on it! The harder decision lately is whether to ride the S or the Duc- they're both shitloads of fun!!

Figures... sucks being the "stepchild" market, don't it?

I believe the R is not coming to the usa (unfortunately). This conclusion is from what I remember about discussions in older threads so I could be wrong

I love my K12s, which is good for intermediate rides. I don't do too much touring so thinking about trading in my R1200GS for an F4. Test riding a 1000 today (weather permitting). The riding position seems too radical for me...but I want to give it a chance. Absolutely beautiful bike. Dealer has an '05 red/silver demo 1000. :guitarist
