Picked up a 2010 GTR last week - a little bit different from the XL1000 (although initial thoughts are that the xl1000 seemed more comfortable riding position).

Will have to take it steady around the twisties of the North East till I get comfortable with the additional power  :scooter:

Welcome Alfor, the word steady and GTR don't usually go together, words like making progress, getting a bit of a spurt on, and quick do though, have fun riding.
