Nice Picture!

Which one is faster? - They are all red - so maybe its a tie?

I have the Multi DVT, my Scrambler Icon will arrive in 2 weeks (65 plate) - do like the Pani, but not for me - too old and fat!

I guess at normal road speeds keeping up on the scrambler is no real issue - even through the curves?

Simon my mate could not keep up with me on the real twisty bits with his DVT. The Scrambler has plenty of go on country lanes and just turns better but on the straights the DVT was up my rear soon enough.....until the next set of twisty lanes :)

My bro is a better rider than me and he was way out in front all the time.

Enjoy the new ride when it comes!

My Multi (S) is about 20 MPH through the curves quicker than my VFR1200 was (with me riding) - I only rode the Scrambler for about 40 minutes - so was still learning - but it did seem as nippy as the Multi through the curves.

Also its turn of speed up to 80 was impressive - but the Multi has very long legs and a lot of galloping horses for the straights..

Have you done any shock changes? - on the testride I did notice back was hard on big potholes - but do not know what it was set to - I am heavy - and for me it was still too hard.. Have you backed off the preload?
Simon the stock suspension front and back is shocking. I'm 12 1/4 stone and can just about get away with the back but the front on my bike was a disaster area until I upgraded to the Andreani front end. There are loads of threads on suspension, some find the back end worse than the front, others the front worse than the back, just do a search and you'll find the accumulative knowledge of the forum.
