Occasionally, the speedo won't work. To fix it, turn off the bike and turn it on again.
The bike I own is called Lucy. This is how she got her name.
Speed Triple - Speed Trip - Trip - LSD - Lucy in the sky with diamonds - Lucy.
What is she like to live with?
She handles curves like a sports bike and she stops like a sports bike, but she doesn't hurt your wrists like a sports bike.
She is very pleasant to spend time with, except for one thing - her seat. It is an instrument of torture so hideous that it's in breach of the Geneva Convention.
Add to this the fact that I am still yet to find anyone who does an after-market replacement for the 2004 model. Plenty for the models before and after, but none for poor old Lucy. Maybe my bony 42 year old bum is the problem, but after 2 hours I'm fussing and squirming and standing up, anything to relieve the suffering. Oh, and by the way, I ALREADY have the gel seat. The standard seat was worse!
But would I swap her? Not for anything. She is the perfect lover. Always willing, always ready, fast, fun and ever so good looking. And just like every affair, pain will get you in the end.
I wrote this survey a few weeks ago, and now the problem with the speedo is getting worse. It seems to be affected by temperature. I'll take it back to the dealer and see what he says.
Nice review, really like your sense for humour.
Just wish I had a wad of cash burning a hole in my pocket, because I now know where I would spend it.
