Ok now the flies have been cleaned off after the run home from buying this magnificent thing, i thought I'd have a gloat. I've decided its a bloke, Dave for now. So Suzy has got a new bedmate:makelurve:
And all the flies were slaughtered for a good cause, and there were many, but they had to go, didn't match the paintwork!!

Scorpion end can. I'm still unsure on the sound it makes, looks super duper doesn't it. Had to ask Dans dad to remove baffle before i left. it sounded like a lawnmower. Suzy growls like a lion from the off shes got a lot of throat, but this ones still growing on me. Its a little quieter than the Art can on suzy, but for the journey to france its not a bad thing, I've still to get used to the sharper handling too, thats why its a bloke;)

They are nice disks, think i'll be putting braided hoses on them cause i'm used to a better stopping rate. Always had them on suzy and i think this one will benefit no end.I have to grab a handful cause they're a little spongey, i'm used to two fingers.
I could compare both bikes all day, as they are so different in a variety of ways. They both have plus's and minuses, I think i.m a very lucky girl in finding this gem:smt003 \\:D/

A bargain 1750. Got a set of original size dog bones from a nice org member on the way cause it feels like its going to fall over every time I park it up--me little legs have to stretch further(got jack up kit on it) . anyone know if this might interfere with the exhaust around the swingarm area? it looks like it might just squeeze..theres an inch or so gap at mo..i'm not a mechanic and don't understand these things:confused:

Should be Ok Dizzy, exhaust is outside of the swing arm

i know, but it kinda curves in slightly just above. Maybe its just me being a silly woman..i'll shut up now. Anyway hopefully i'll be there at AR07 should be fun.

It will be fine Lou, Standard dog bones actually give more clearance, around the exhaust. So yes, you are being a silly woman:p . I'm dead pleased you are enjoying it. Heartbreaking as it is, it makes it much easier seeing that someone is enjoying it!

I'm a worrier aren't I. Just shows i want to love it and hug it and call it my own:smt055 . I really love that exhaust and wouldn't want to hurt it!! by the way Dan the picture above was yesterday after a good wash. I daren't show a picture of suzy she'd be so upset, she looks a real unloved minger at the mo. Winter riding has not done her any favours. The black one has given me a standard to work to. Shiney shiney shiney, ahh women are always drawn to shiney objects, and yes they dig scars and titanium parts!!!

And the forks look mint, much better than mine that need some TLC

What would look great are my stainless bar ends if I don't mind saying I've got one set left
