The lucky testers are currently being briefed about the VFR1200F before taking their first few laps. They will be lead by former GP rider Tohru Ukawa, but hopefully he won’t be going too fast.

Here are Andy’s first impressions of the VFR1200F

‘It feels surprisingly light. The weight feels very low down and it is like sitting in it rather than on it’
