    I have to agree! Since riding a Senna around Taupo Full Track, I still reckon it was head and shoulders above anything else I've ever ridden. and there's been a few

    I have only ridden a MV-750 when I was looking at buying my next bike & it wasn't that great to be honest so went & brought my 03 RSVR which had way more Quality kit on it for less money go figure . Guess we all have different opinions about what is a so called good handling bike . May check out a MV 312 next time I feel like a change again

    Having different opinions is what being an individual is all about. It's all good. Have to agree the Aprilia has great kit for less money, in particular the Tuono is a big favourite of mine. If you do ride a 312 I know you'll love it, but it's always good to be able to have time to set the suspension for your personal tastes, so hope you have a good long fang on some good twisties and have a bit of a fiddle with the settings.

    make sure you do an uber test ride - see if you reckon the gap for your wrist / arm is big enough between the "wing" at the top of the petrol tank and the handle bar grips and is comfy for you. the ducatis leave enough space between tank and handlebar grips for their "open turning circles" but boy-oh-boy its a small gap on the mv's. the worst of it would only be slow speed turns prob. and slow speed turns won't really be on the menu mv's ... oh what a savage tool

    U turns on MVs are not much fun Surfchick, but hairpins are nice and challenging (the really really tight alpine ones )pity were on different islands or we could swap-a-ride one day.

    Thing about you is that you're an interesting character... whatever bike (in fact, not just restricted to bikes) you have at the time is the bestest/awesomest/whatever. You're a very loyal purchaser
