    If I get it by then and I can fit some luggage on it then yes I will bring it but at the moment there is no delivery date and Yamaha France are building them as fast as they can. o_O

    Looking at KTM’s 790 the new Yamaha 700 looks the safe bet, cant wait to see her Bob

    Well, I actually got to both see one and sit on one last Monday through in Inverness.

    Certainly is a looker, but by feck is that seat high . . . . and wide (which all adds to less foot contact :rolleyes:).

    My rough, on the spot reckining was that the perch,width combination sets me nearly an inch higher up - nearly the same seat height as the F800GS Adventure o_O.

    One other thing - you have to buy rear grab handles seperatly? WTF

    Be nice to try one out though :D
