Good afternoon all!!!!

Well i picked up my bike sat 9am on the dot! after going over and everything explained, i was handed the keys and off i went after being watched be about 6-7 blokes who i was sure i would drop it i did fine an had the entire day gettin used to it just plodding along around my local area and visiting verious people to show of

came home an locked her up...

Sunday awoke to some serious muscle ache the bike had taken its toll on places i didnt know i could ache so i decided to recover and not risk doing something silly gutted..

Monday(today) first ride to work was great stright on down the main road (leeds road from 6lane ends to birstal... which is so bumpy! anyone noticed?)
next was ride home again perfect did my first "Bike" move which was skip past traffic and get to the front of the que but i can still see me waiting in traffic till im more confident!

Overall Bloody LOVE IT

cant take the smile off my face

ps. any orgers that fancy a meet up just give me a shout as im the only one i know with a bike boo

Nice bike buddy. Had one just like it.

Remove the idiot stickers and fit a tail tidy and go have fun. Great little bike. I did 8k miles in my 15 months of ownership
