So farewell then, GTS1000. It's been fun. I hope your new owner is happy
with you.

One minor comedy moment, I think I'll let Steve confess to that if he
wants to... ;^)

The Vmax experience can be broadly summarised as:

"Hmmm, this goes quite well****ME!".

That's funny , I have a sig change too.
Don't think we'll mention the dropping of the GTS on the test ride though.
Most embarrassing.

Are you trying to claim you felt pressured into buying it after a
minor mishap?

I've just had my Yam 250 started up and running nicely, all ready for
a quick thrash around the countryside in the morning.

Nah , dropped it at 0mph whilst attempting a U turn in my road.
It was my other halfs fault , she came outside to watch.
She's like the Douglas Adams truck driver who is an unwitting rain god she
is.
