...and a mini screen! :D any speed above 80/90 was pretty uncomfortable on my Street Triple.. and that was with the screen! Max I got out of it was 140mph and I felt like I was going to be blown off the back at any second :D

Looks great , enjoy! :)
 
i had the flyscreen on her as well as the body coloured rad cowling. but to me it just as tho she had toooo many cloths on! so they are going to go on Ebay to pay for part of the exhaust upgrade!

you're right tho, anything above 100mph feels dicy! but for me, the screen hardly made any difference and defiantly not £150 worth of difference!

wind noise is an issue tho. any recommendations for good batches of ear plugs?

I found the standard cheap yellow foam ones we get given at work are perfect, they block out most of the wind noise so it's not an issue (tested to 160 :p). I had trouble with the shaped ones with a lip on then, they kept popping out my ears, the cylindrical ones don't have so much spring to them so they stay in a lot better!
 
@edd1e - Liking the piccie... what are the roads like around the ring? They're meant to be epic... as it'll form part of our 3,500 road trip next year... but wondering weather to do the ring or just near it?
 
I had a nice time on the roads near the 'ring. Didn't take my bike on there though as had only passed my test about a month before.
 
I got some action shots in my manly leathers, really need to lose some weight :(





And from my first ever track day (damn photographer standing on the slowest point of the track!)

Roads are awesome, easily as good as the 'ring in some areas (and Free!)
 
Took me about a month after passing my test before I found, and bought, my bike.

The most annoying part was everyone saying "have you bought a bike yet" "No, **** off"
 
why in gods name did triumph put such ugly lights on a lovely bike??

looks like they have been pulled out a fairing and slapped on. round is where its at
 
As amazing as the 1098S and 1198S (and the normal versions are), do not under estimate how much of a pig they are to ride 'normally'.

As some will agree, when we went on that meet up to 'the road', I was not having that much fun on the way there and back. But on 'the road'. The bike came to life, but only when doing mind boggling speeds and at the edge of the bikes limits.

The panigale... Now that is where it's at!
