Was technically mine for 5 days. Loved absolutely every single minute of it. The corolla we get here is nowhere near as good.

It's way lighter, like 300 pounds, and shorter wheelbase. That's like 3 Japanese girls

Ferrari doesn't allow people with mere "carports" to purchase their vehicles. Enclosed garage only.

Interesting PRS has always said, always warm up the bike before riding off, apparently the magic number is like 40 to 50 degrees Celsius... having said that, the bike warms up pretty fast, by the time I fit my helmet and gloves, we are basically there.

In the summertime, the moment you crank the bike (from overnight parking), and its already like 27 degrees loool

270 degree freestanding one
got some comments on how easy it looks to open and stow
very well built but my biggest gripe is being enticed into buying as walls with mesh windows were coming, just doors unfortunately
