Excellent news. Weather is forecast to be pretty good this weekend so you'll have those running in miles out the way in no time!

whats up with everyone talking about how the bike behaves poorly over 100 mph? don't get it all....for a naked bike it behaves outstanding.

I had mine up to 90, it was fine.

Last time I had a bike over a ton was my Fireblade in 1993. Too old for that now. :D

Hi Mick, yes it did. I was quite surprised as I wasn't expecting it. It's registered and my docs will be sent to me.

Plus, I booked my first service immediately as I'm taking it on a bit of a journey next week. I thought it'll be just the service which would've been free/pay for the parts - but the first service is entirely free. 100%.

I had to pay for mine, charged me £130. That included £10 for lubricating the chain, something I had done the night before myself.

Dealers I bought it from are a bit dodgy though. Had a few problems with them.

Well...did you get it? Am guessing it's such a fun ride you've been on it for the last 3 days only to stop for fuel and a dump lol.
Or worse case scenario, it hasn't turned up yet?

Nice one. Am not surprised at your excitedness. Just ordered a screen myself (that wind can be really be windy!) WIL you are right about service. Mine was around 40 quid. labour free just pay for oil/filter etc. Chain tightened for free and R&G rad guard that I had a mare fitting and bought from there was fitted free also
