    One of the guys on the Multi site says he always approaches his strada from behind - I don't go quite that far but all of us loyal strada riders reckon most other bikes only see the rear view anyway! LOL. The bike looks great when you are riding it and as you say, the looks grow on you slowly (Really slowly for some people)

    I don't know if I should admit but yep. A red 620 - I thought about the 1000 but liked the idea of only 180kg and lower seat and as a returning old guy I wasn't sure that the 1000 might be a bit much. As it is I am more than happy with it.

    I know which one I'd rather do the Coro loop on, and it ain't the Gixxer.
    Speed doesn't kill people.
    Stupidity kills people.

    i love the bike.
    not that fairing though.
    would love to see a naked one.
    i suppose that's where the hypermotard idea came from.

    A naked one would be a monster 620.
