    If you take the bike to Warrington for fitting do they wash it to get all the bugs off?

    Yeah they do mate. Last time I had it fitted to my Repsol I drove straight to warrington from the dealer In Preston. They cleaned all the fairings etc before fitting started. It took about 4 hours

    Just curious how the SP's saddle is looking after you faithful in the northern hemisphere. Is it as firm as some are reporting? Expecting arrival of mine down here in Perth next week. Usually we are the wait awhile state but we're not too far behind you guys for a change. Regards

    I've just been out on mine for the first time. I did 100 miles and can't say the seat was to much of an issue. It certainly is a touch harder and the riding position more aggressive but I don't think it's a problem. I could tell yo more after spending more time in the seat but at the mo I'm in the honeymoon period so just grinning in my helmet :). Yu won't be disappointed tho I can assure you of that :D
