Hello everyone,
I ordered my 1199s a few months ago and am finally getting it tomorrow here in Seoul. Searching through internet, I found this forum and excited to be a member.
The local cost of the bike after tax is outrageous. Panigale S is approximately US$39,000 after 10% tax and 5% registration fee. The street traffic in Seoul is crazy, but once you get out of downtown, there are beautiful local winding roads on the suburbs.
Korea is one of few countries (I believe there are only 3 in the world) that does not allow bike on the highways. There is a big local movement among the riders to change the law, but has been a very long and tiring fight.
In any case, enough about Korea, I read many threads regarding break-in and other helpful suggestions.
Looking forward to getting more helpful ideas from the forum.
