    Excellent, Paul. Spend a day with the bike and then the evening with the manual. Rider modes might be a headfull at first, but it all comes together after a bit of a play!!

    No.....the kitchen is like a friggin science lab, but I have no complaints with that, makes for a superb garage! It'll be staying in here for as long as I can get away with it!

    The Mrs is actually rather exceptional, but don't be fooled by the kitchen......she can't fucking use it properly!!:rolleyes:

    I mean......who puts the veg on to boil before the fucking meats gone on the oven???o_O Timings are shocking! :D:D

    Yep, agree. My former wife's timings weren't the best - the very reason we had four children:rolleyes:;).

    Rider modes are easy leave it in mode 2......-and when you feel your on it and need less TC and harder settings put it in mode 1 no need to fanny about with individual settings,,...Mr Honda knows best....although changing the graphics on thescreen is good fun....carbon effect ....race setting etc....enjoy...

    Thanks @Wozza really helpful that, mode 3 for wet weather then?

    Just got it insured, current insurer Carole Nash couldnt insure it for what ever reason but Carole Nash Select could!?o_O anyway after being sat there for half an hour with my armpits dripping with sweat it got sorted.

    Ended up paying £607 fully comp which is twice what I was paying but I expected it to be honest. But because my old policy was with CN I didn't get charged a cancellation fee, I actually got a refund:eek:;)

    Yes Mate and cold temps ....also you can change rider modes while on the move just have to make sure you roll off the throttle for a couple of secs at let it engage....no one told me this I just found out by mistake one day when I went to put the full beam on!!..

    Bet you didn't sleep last night Paulo with excitement, I wonder how many times will you tiptoe down the stairs tonight to have another look and tap the tank.
    You are one lucky guy.

    Instructions should read, turn on ignition and just ride. Never mind all this electronics bollocks. I'll be amazed if you can tell the difference on the road.

    Quite true, Kevin. The difference is very subtle, but I did notice a lot slower throttle response (understandably) in wet mode. Actually surprised me because my right wrist is generally not susceptible to minor sensation changes.
