Default It's out!!!!!!

Having brought it on the 12th of December and not used it, I was proud of my self control, however owing to some serious noises coming from the SV cam chain tentioners I've had to retire it a week early.

So, IT'S OUT , quick throttle and all, didn't have the time I'd planned for the niceties, but practicality has overridden everything.

truly a beast of a bike.

Small children and anyone with a medical condition beware

Here's the view most will see of it (me included if I don't watch myself)



Be seeing you Friday.

Cheers Mark.
