Default Daytona 675 + new camera

My new (secondhand) camera turned up yesterday, so I thought I would ride through the park and try it out on the way home. It's only a little Canon IXUS, but beats the hell out of my even older IXUS. Plus I got the underwater housing which was the big draw! I'm very impressed with the quality and at 140 pounds including the underwater bits, a pretty sweet buy!

Pics taken in Centennial Park:

















Usually I hate carbon fibre randomly stuck to bikes, but in this case it is my cheap fix to cover up my dented and scratched tank! Looks pretty good in my opinion and beats spending $1500 on a new tank!

my next bike is going to be a 675 simply because of these pictures. How is it on your wrists? I've heard it's a 'very focused' bike i.e. when sat astride the bike, your ar$e is higher than your hands. I'm 6ft 3 - would I struggle?

Don't believe what you read in the papers.

I'm 5'11" in old money (1.79m) and I have no problems on my 675. No your **** will not be higher than your hands.

Luke - it's so clean... really cool. But then I would say that wouldn't I
