Suzuki.
Comfy. The throttle took a bit of getting used to, as did the
gearbox. Quite a lazy torque-y engine. Didn't want to rev and rev.
Did **** wheelies unless I stood up, put my foot on the luggage rack
and pulled the bars really hard. Didn't try to stoppie it. Handled
strangely. The biggest problem was getting the sand out of my
trainers afterwards.
Yamaha.
Bit of a wild ride, this. I thought I was going to lob it a couple of
times. It just wants you to give it more throttle. It wants you to
go faster. Turns on a six-pence. Marvellous fun. There's always a
downside though, isn't there? In this case: jellyfish.
I had a *great* weekend!
