    Don't remember the leathers but was an older shorte guy, apparently MV have given 2 220hp MV's to race here this summer, mate talked to him, interesting dude. Apparently he was in Italy @ a MV function & got a wee bit tipsy & said MV's are shit & was over heard my head sherang, who took out on one the next day & offered him a Senna half price if he'd set a MV race team, nice

    Indeed! Still puts me in my happy place thinking about the day I got to try the Brutale and the Senna out for myself. They really are in a league of their own.

    How true. You've just earned yourself a ride on a Brutale R.

    I shall hold you to that, sir. Excuse me, I'll just be away from my desk for a few minutes, in the bathroom with a photo of a Brutale...

    As a matter of fact, fruityboy has appointed me to test-ride a pre-loved F4-1000S at AMPS at lunchtime today, so I shall record my impressions in this thread afterwards.

    When you do, would you pop down my way please? Been awhile since I rode a sprots bike (Taupo..) would be nice to have a go again.

    I'll spot you $10 gas money.

    I reckon the 1098 Tricolore is a sexier bike than any (sports) MV! Get one of those! mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

    MMMmmmmmmm.....I got the chance to ride an MV Senna earlier this year over the Rapa.......unbelievible handling and power. AWESOME machine made the Prilla feel like a right sack of shite when I got back on it but of course it's not

    If ya got the cash and the choice GO for it! though a black 1098s has got that something special about it if ya like twins.
