Hi,
Thanks for welcoming a newbie..
Just bought a 2023 1050 after years on hinckley triumphs. So far I'm impressed with the bike particularly the comfort and fuel range. Just rode it from Dorset to Pembrokeshire and got back feeling pretty fresh. I look forward to posting a few pieces.

Welcome.

Furthest I’ve done in one hit on my 2022 1050XT is Dijon to Weston-super-Mare via the Channel Tunnel….. 600 miles.

I’m more than happy with my bike.👍
