funny isnt it , doesnt matter what you have , the compulsion to feck around with it happens pretty instantly.
it had been just over a year when i was forced to let my 1150 go due to a fecked back and time off work ,
So a 955i came up on here for a reasonable price and desperate to be back on my own two wheels we went for it .
first impressions engine , makes you Grin all through the rev range very smooth and plenty of roll on stomp at speed
the screens bloody useless (thats now sorted with a palmer products item)
and leg rooms a tad cramped for my long legs .( lowered footpegs have been sourced)
the petticoat Government has given the pillion perch the seal of approval
Headlights Crap ( even worse than the 1150
) now sorted with HIDs
she seems to be returning 47-50mpg no matter how ridden , it will be interesting to see how that changes with a K+N , end can and fuel map
for the first few miles of riding i thought there was a problem with the tyres as i couldnt believe how quick it tipped into corners , but after 40k on the rock steady 1150 its no real surprise.
and by christ the STD can has to go it sounds like a freakin sewing machine
Do i like it ? yes its a good bike and bloody good value for money
parts seem fairly reasonable , and its a fairly straight forward bike to work on . though im not sure about this having to lube a chain larkD
and its going to be around for a while because i need to invest in a new van for work this year
palmer screen and knocked up satnav mount oh and the RoxRisers from my 1150
during a ride out with two blue props finest she is no shrinking violet
