Hi All,

Newbie from Scotland.

 

[Explorer]

Hello and welcome what bike have you got ?

 

[davsmit]

Hello thanks for the welcome.

I had a 2013RR in red and white, I sold it in february. Collecting my HP4 carbon this Friday!!!! can't wait.

 

[Explorer]

Well done, must be getting near the end of the production run of HP4 by now, what number is yours.

 

[MiKyHuT]

Hi mate. I'm also a newbie from Scotland. Where you picking yours up from. There was another hp4 carbon sat there at Dalkeith waiting to be picked up when I picked mine up on Saturday. Mines is number 4923

 

[davsmit]

I'm collecting mine from Parks in East Kilbride.

I think the number is 5142. Been waiting a while on it now.

Hi and welcome.
I got my 2014 from Parks in March. Bet Friday can't come quick enough?

 

[davsmit]

Yes, looking forward to the bike. How are you liking the HP4 since you picked it up?

 

[MiKyHuT]

i know that was aimed at dave80h but thought id chirp in with a review of my first few days of ownership, bike is smooth, feels very much like a fireblade but turns in faster and you can get on the brakes harder before a corner. just need to get miles on the thing quick to get the silly 9K limitter disabled.

 

[davsmit]

MiKyHut, have you had your bike serviced and the limiter taken off already? That was quick work.

 

[MiKyHuT]

nooo, i wish. im desperate to get that limiter off. its a very wierd feeling hitting the limiter mid corner. although i have been enjoying not being able to go over 120mph. keeps me sensible.

 

[dave80h]

Sorry I should have been clearer, I got my 2014 RR from parks not an HP4 although they had a bash at trying to talk me into buying one. So other than a demo ride on one I can't comment.

Hi did you buy it from Parks, I think you stole it from under my nose

 

[davsmit]

Hi Jim,

Yes got it from parks. I ordered mine back in January. My bike was one of two delivered at the same time. I think the other has been sold now at the weekend. Must have been someone else that stole it from you.

hope you get one soon.

all the best.

Davy.
