mate, you aint going to believe this, but i was thinking as i was riding it how comfy it is, and it did cross my mind, however it just wouldnt cope with the long straights or cruising well over 70mph

Wow! Paul, I remember the conversations we had about these....and now...at this very moment..you have both of them in your pocket! :peace: :drool: Really cool pair of MC's! Can I buy the SE one day from you..? :whistle:
Or trade to few MBX's and MB5/8's from here..

Yeah, the few bikes I've ridden with dry clutches all seemed slightly more 'agricultural' than their wet counterparts. You cant beat that rattly sound though.

Just have, down to the local filling stn, stuck a tenner in it and off to the next town. is rides lovely and its nice to know the clutch harshness is the same as the SE, a trait of the dry clutch perhaps.
feels a very nice tight bike, however dare i say the SE has a bit more pep about it i think :o

Ahh, I thought the SE would be quicker. This is probably down to the previous owner working for HRC when he was a boy! :pmsl: :pmsl: :pmsl:

Jason, times always right mate for another bike.
sadly - no, the SE is staying put for now. they look good together, its wrong to split them up
