Well what can I say, It's just fantastic, Had it delivered on Friday, spent the rest of the day just looking at it, ;)

Saturday I fitted the Evotech Radiator Guards, and the Cymarc side stand extension, ( well it was raining) and the extreme mudguard from Nippy's,

Sunday an early start heading for north Wales, breakfast in Porthmadoc then a blast round the mountains, loving it, 240 odd miles and just the day for getting used to a new bike, dry and sunny,

Just like to thank my friend Richard (Nutty) for talking me into it, and putting me in touch with some nice people who gave me a great deal with the bike, :thumb2

Brilliant bike :beerjug:

Crap colour :D

Get rid of the pannier frames and get a decent pipe and you will laugh your tits off everytime you hit 9k on the rev counter
 
Great bike. I'm off through France on mine Saturday, the only problem will be trying not to go too fast.

I recommend going to see Geoff at Hilltop who makes them even better.
 
Looks fantastic, Graham.:thumb

Let me know when you want the list of recommend mods to do to the bike.:D

Pannier frames are pretty unobtusive, and will give good support - even if all you fit are "throw-overs".

Clean lines, the pic makes the bike look very messy?
