Default Picked up the new bike on Saturday.

Hi ya,

Some of you are aware that i've got shot of the ZX6R and bought a Tuono, well I picked her up 2 weeks early (thanks Dad) and I couldn't be happier with her.

Although the garage have not adjusted the chain and this has created a groove in the exhaust, which leads me to believe it has not been serviced prior to pick up, but hey ho i'll be having a word with them later.

anyway the pics-

much easier and I think sharper than the ZX, it helps if you've owned a twin as when you change gears and open the throttle between 5k and 8k it yanks you forward, I love it absolutley no regrets.

Most of my neighbours are elderly or disabled, so I'm expecting a police vist at some point.

I meant the 2 chains, the disc and brake lock. Better safe than sorry I guess.

nice bike..I presume the security is a safe guard just in case one of the elderly or disabled fancies taking it out for a spin.
