    I'm pleased how the bike performs the engine seems smoother than the 114 with more torque although i stuck to the breaking in rules and haven't reved it much over 3000rpm. The handling is improved with the extra inch of suspension travel. the memphis shades road warrior fairing works well keeping the wind off my chest

    wow great pic - road warrior fairing suits......& man, more great memories right there - we hit the pub at Rags nearly every trip...seems to be a real mecca for bikes now....i remember maybe 20 years ago had the whole fam bam sitting on that veranda having lunch when we ran into a HD rider from Alabama touring NZ - that we had also met a year or so before at Roebuck Roadhouse up NW WA while he was also touring Oz on his bike.....small world....

    yeah nice place and apparently one of the best left-hand break in the world so I have heard, a nice ride during the week when the roads not so busy, the pub has nice fish & chips and a good selection beers
