Looks heavy and probably sounds like a bag of spanners in a washing machine like the rest of them

Take some tools with you and remove that exhaust shield. I want to see pipework not plastic.

Apart from that, I like.

Hmmmmmm, it could possibly feel more loved if it gave its front end a face lift!!!!

Noticed the gap left between what looks like twin radiators for nice front plug drowing.

Hes good ya know wet clutch so no more clanking at the traffic lights and everyone staring thinking your bikes broken. 185kg and 130ish bhp. Me likey! I just hope they don't make the seat height ridiculously high for short arses like me

Exhaust shield wouldn't be a problem, it'd be getting ditched along with the cans for a booming Termi system now, wheres the nearest bank to rob....
