We had a great time running in these bikes. Luckily the weather held off until almost the end of the ride. The roads were dry for all the fun bits.
The bike handles really well and has excellent brakes. It took me a little while to get used to the riding position compared the 1150GS. Once I had settled in it turned out to be quite comfortable.
The engine will obviously need a few more K's on the clock for it to loosen up, but it has quite a bit of torque, so riding it in running in mode wasn't a chore.
I am sure these bikes will turn out to be very popular. Here is a picture of them all lined up, waiting for a rider.

I have more pictures on my camera, but can't find the transfer lead.
