    Test Drive

    Just been to dealers for a go in their demonstrator trophy. Only done 65 miles so i appreciate its still a bit stiff. Seats were superb, really snug. As was the ride, you can fly round corners and it doesn't roll an inch. You can really belt along and it doesnt make a fuss. However, i'm not 100%...
