Thanks to those who posted with both observations and hearty welcomes...!!!!! To Humperdinkel, I personally "LOVE " the Empty01 (That gag is for Mikey and Wolfman)..I have NEVER had a bike that seems to fit me so well which was one of the MAIN reasons for me buying it....The Torque is "Prodigious" and it takes NO TIME to get rocketing along....The bike loses out on TOP END power and to get those serious speeds you have to build it almost progressively due to such a low revving engine...Basically NO QUICK SHIFTING because you need to build the momentum...You have to remember that this is a bike that REDLINES at ONLY FIVE and a HALF THOUSAND REVS....Doing 160 in top only equates to THREE and a HALF THOUSAND REVS....It is hard to believe until you ride such a bike...It has certainly taken some adjustment from riding the TRX850

And to Mikey and the Wolfman,I did the honourable thing and went home from your place last night via the SCENIC ROUTE...Up Magill Rd to Norton Summit across through Summertown Etc, and down through Inglewood before heading home...I can't match Mikeys "Enthusiasm" but he'd still be proud...You gotta LOVE the road less travelled...
To those who haven't seen it, heres a pic of the OTHER toy...It still my "SENTIMENTAL" favourite...
Bloody thing WON"T load my pic....BLoody,Bloody....Ah, thats better...done as an attachment...

It can take a while sometimes for the pic to load. You can upload it to a site like TinyPic - Free Image Hosting, Photo Sharing & Video Hosting and then post the "direct link" if you want.

Ahh, the scenic route, none much better than Norton Summit rd either, good choice.
