Philplop Posted January 28, 2008 Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 Not been out yet, but must say I've been tempted. Lots of bikers round here this weekend. Was put off riding in the winter after my little spill, but reckon I'm all fixed now and ready to get out again.Can't wait. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Traction control?I am after anything in the new shape. I like the 2004 onwards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crusoe Posted January 28, 2008 Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 updated again with better suspension settings 17" wheels and slight modifications to interior and the option of vehicle stability assist, you can switch it off but nice to have on cold wet nights plus it might help the insurance, bound to be a desirable option second hand.

Putney Posted January 28, 2008 Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 (edited) updated again with better suspension settings 17" wheels and slight modifications to interior and the option of vehicle stability assist, you can switch it off but nice to have on cold wet nights plus it might help the insurance, bound to be a desirable option second hand.Is that on the 2006 onwards? Do the 2005 have traction control but no switch? Edited January 28, 2008 by Putney Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
