Title: Test Rides available Jan 22

It's got a chain which is a mark against it, other than that it's got the lovely K5 engine and an extended sub frame for pillion comfort.

Not convinced but it's the first bike I've even considered since buying the gtr in 2017. Off for a test ride at Letchworth Suzuki soon.

Funnily enough I watched a press review of this only yesterday on Richy Vidas YouTube channel. It looks a cracking bike and the TFT on it is awesome, not as good as on my GSA but still awesome.   :yes:

I had a guzzi stelvio before the gtr so don't want to go the adventure bike route again. Having said that the Harley pan American really impressed me. Trouble is hd's are ridden by poseurs or gang members and I don't want to join either.
