I'm looking forward to spending some time with a liquid cooled vtwin. My experience so far is limited to about five minutes on a superhawk (sports oriented twins anyway) and I've been considering a switch in that direction for a bit now

My heart still runs cold when I hear a liter 4 screaming for redline. But that isnt where my bike spends its time. Twins are so much easier to live with. If I ran track only and lived for the 110% I would still have a supersport inline. But my highway miles work better and feel better on a twin.

It is a new design with my 1125 but it has a character alot like a Duc 900/1000 SS. Tractor like and lazy at most throttle settings. It does have a 2000 rpm top end that the SS doesnt have tho. A real last minute rush. But everywhere else it just pulls nice and tractable, like my Hawk and my SV before only stronger.
