100 or so
I did the above but even after 100 miles I never reved it out for long periods.
I have never ran a bike in properly and never had a slow bike or problems.

I was looking at getting this or last years r6 or r1 in a couple of years but do a lot of 2 up riding and the mrs' knees are around my ears on um

which is a real shame cos they look trick. Seems that way on all sports bikes now
Enjoy it jon, somehow I think you will

Will this be the last chapter of new bikes for Jon?
5/1 odds that he will have a new bike in 6 months time.
