That is drop-dead gorgeous, especially in the red. I wonder who is going to be the first to import one?

Yes, what was wrong with it before, Neddy? I read some articles about the Carberry and they seemed pretty positive. To be fair most of the feedback came from Owners who had put down considerable deposits and waited quite a while but even so the experience sounded quite good for what was always likely to be more of a tourer than a sports bike.

rear end mainly, wheel/tyre and brakes, better shockies, improve forks. these I thought let down my 500 iron barrel on which the first carberry was built around, cost was way too much for such a machine

They're what holds up the rear of the bike; the forkies hold up the front...😀

...Beg to differ, Rattle, its wheelies wot hold up the front wheel. Never been known on an oilfield before.
