Ah right, I've met your brother, nice guy. If you've gotten used to your Bandit 600 the R1100S is completely different, where the little Suzuki would be a quick steering, smooth, rev box with very little bottom end and mid range with a slick gearbox the boxer is a slow steering, lumpy engined torque rich engine with a "mans" gearbox. However, once acclimatised they're fantastic and for real road use can rarely be bettered.meds8964 wrote:thanks for the warm welcome, will try and make LLangollen, Im in sunny old colwyn Pete.
