Tis apparantly a very nice bike... or so I am told from someone in the know  |
Proof will be in the pudding, at least it can be sat on at this years NEC, smaller than the Vara so I will wait and see. |
You could always go to Milan and try it out along with average height people..... Perhaps it's not aimed at giants  |
That's the problem, hardly any bikes are unless you want a GS, Tiger or Tenere which I don't! |
Is that why you crashed the other year to shorten your legs?  |
Didn't work did it!

Being told by my chiropractor I have probably damaged a disc ... 
Disconcerting when she whacked my knee with the reflex hammer, and nothing happened

Afraid in most cases there is no cure, just has to be managed. Although if the nuro/whatsit nerve damage remains could be referred for an MRI scan ...
Hopefully should be improving in a couple of weeks ....

WPMOT. Out and out spineless hypocracy of the highest order. Beggars belief tbh. I really can't believe the gall of some people.

I had an MRI scan on my back a couple of years back - slipped disc was the problem - after a year of agony it sorted itself out, it would appear that scar tissue builds up and somehow protects the nerves that were effected. Hope yours sorts itself out

Another way of looking at that would be that your boots stopped your foot from getting mangled.

What were you doing with them before cornering, the only time I take mine of the pegs is to stop me falling over at a stop

Be careful decking pegs as they can lift the rear wheel... Better to adjust your body position to use less lean - ground clearance will be more of an issue with your bike being lowered.
Better lines will also mean less lean required too. HTH

I know exactly the flavour. I can still taste it now after 20 years. 
Are you going fully gluten free? I had a severe allergy to gluten (amongst other things) aged 5 - 16ish. I slowly managed to wean myself back to "normal" foods and I'm totally fine now, I can eat what I want!

I am trying to be fully gluten free, but not succeeding. There is still a question mark over me having this allergy, hence the quack trying to see if it makes a difference by cutting gluten out.
