Tell you what - why not buy me one of them Panigale V4s? That will help
me be less upright (in one sense or another) and I can give you regular >updates on its reliability, right up until my entirely foreseeable
sudden death.
My local Vertu has franchises for BMW and Ducati. I had great fun
deciding whether I'd go for a Pangale V4 or an M1000RR.

I hadn't realised that 'upright' was referring to the riding/seating position.
I had assumed it meant being law-abiding, and was trying to make a
joke about how upright the bike might be when cornering

Which is exactly why I chose the word in the first place. I even
underlined when I said that giving me a Panigale V4 would, "help me be
less upright (in one sense or another)"
Good lord, have you all been spending too much time on Mastodon, or something?
