Nice bike- I looked at a few on Bike Trader when I was considering my first bike.... Get better soon so you can take it for a spin!!

Ignore the negativity, the fact you now have a bike is great as it gives you something to shoot for. When you are out of plaster and being man handled in physio, it gives you some incentive to work hard.

Re: New bike for me !!!
 

Winter hacks are soooo coool.

Apart from preventive maintenance it's just a case of get on and ride. I still think the best form of winter hack is a shaft drive one. MAINTENANCE FREE. Whoohoo.

Oh and Paws. :cool: looking hack you have there. :thumbsup:

Re: New bike for me !!!
 

Find out if it is restricted as most import bike are! If it is don't worry as they are only washers in the inlet manifold and take a few mins to remove. You'll lve it by the way there's a US site as well for them there's loads of mods you can do to them!:cool:
