Err, I don't know that much about it at the moment, I'm not picking it up til saturday. I'll post a pic when I get it home.
Chuffed to bits, though, cos I've wanted a Priller for ages now.

Don't do rain, I'll be trailering it home, but looking forward to getting out on a big v-twin again. If it's anywhere near as much fun as the TL1000S I used to own I'll be a happy man!

You won't regret your purchase. I still grin like a lunatic every time I ride mine and I've had it for about 5 years now. :biggrin

No disrespect to the 'widow maker' it was a great bike, but not in the same league as the rsv. After riding one of those your prilla will feel as though its riding on rails in the twisties! enjoy matey, welcome to the zone

My old TL was a bit good, it had an Ohlins rear damper and maxton tinkered with the front forks, so it handled great. But I reckon the RSV will do at least as good a job, and looks far better.
After droning around on a boring old Triumph Sprint for 6 months, the RSV can't fail to impress me.
welcome to the zone, mate i too am new to rsv and been out on it all wkend, enjoyed every minute even when stood still !!! but you've made a good choice, even my mate who has a tl1000s with ohlins rear shock and power commander was impressed by it

Ah, you're the norvern monkey, innit?
I was looking at your pics this morning actually. Looks really good in yellow.
Welcome to the mad house mate, watch out for the Kent/Essex/Surrey ride outs - got one this weekend if the weathers OK, tag along. :thumbup

Yep, spotted that, but I'll be picking the bike up this weekend. TBH I've done my time riding in **** weather; I don't mind the cold, but I'm really not that keen on getting soaked, and the weather this weekend is looking pretty ropey.
Enjoy!
