Yes, I did ask him a couple of questions and he kindly helped.

Yep had one before my striple, couldn't knock it for what it's supposed to be an absolute missile while still being rideable for hours. Got so much grunt you can basically leave it in third and treat it as a twist and go
Made me realise I prefer having to make my bikes work for it a bit more though and I no longer need mile munching ability.

My 2020 S1000XR. Has mainly spent this year commuting a few times a month.. the few times I've been able to find extra time to go and do something the weather has been horrible (aside from a trip to Anglesey in July to go to a car trackday)
I contemplate selling up every winter and then just keep a bike purely for the commuting, with a bit of fun sometimes. Standard aside from the seat which was re-covered (and better foam) by a company called Elsemade
Had a 2017 Fireblade before this but I was starting to get cramp in my hips every single ride and it was uncomfortable doing the hour - 90 minute commute
