Sold by MMC to me in November 2023 tuned & dyno by by REPS motorcycles this summer.
Used 3 times since running in miles.
She’s is a thing of beauty, no expense spared on the build, rides phenomenally well.
A few extra teeth on the rear sprocket, great gearing for the road.
A show bike for the road, but suits a small to aver height rider.
I am 5ft 10 fits me great. Not sure it would works for 6ft plus
Reason for sale – with a heavy heart – I just cannot ride her sensibly. She is race tuned with short gearing and honestly sounds as good as any bike I’ve ever heard.
That is a combination which I just cannot be even remotely sensible with.
Recently moved to Cornwall. The roads down here do not suit that kind of riding!
She drops jaws, turns heads and starts conversations everywhere she goes.
