A lot of family pressure re keeping the old T max and the silverwing.

Though really regretting selling the T max quickly on again now. Good advice from a Muppet said keep the T max and sell the SW.

Saying that now I have the hump off the silverwing so sit further back, sorted a shock issue and the amazing Michelin City Grip on the rear and how it has transformed how much better the SW handles the Bumps now, I think I made the right choice.

Also the T max was pushing out my duff hips quite a lot, the SW does`nt now.

The Costa sounds like it would be a really good investment at some point.

I must admit my Silverwing has a really rough spot between 3 and 4 K and I often seem to be about there on the small back roads. It vibrates the top side fairing pieces quite a bit when in the mood too.

But starting to really like it more and more. ( I should whisper that as everytime I feel good about it the clutch scritching was coming on )

Feeling quite confident RE popping in to the variator etc now been in twice.

Its not as daunting as at first.

Best Mark.

PS how is it particularly at 3-4K or 30-50 mph please with the cheapie Costa though sounds good all the way. Thanks.

Hi thanks sounds great.

Might take the plunge as it is a bit rough compared to even the old T max.

Good to get a run down of how it is thanks.

Best Mark.
