A few owners have told me it's like a pogo stick at the front, there's no adjustment & to look for one with a Daytona's front end put on.

The streets around here were originally cobblelock, they're not much smoother now.

Put 105bhp, cheap suspension & bad road surfaces together & it's a problem

Every bike has a 'problem' something the owners would like to change, on the 250 it's the lack of overtaking power on tap.

I could probably assemble what I'd consider my 'perfect' bike, but it would cost the same as a house in some of the dodgier parts of the country
