Default Re: I got my D675 today

Oi!!! It hasbeen Mothers' Day, y'know!! That means restricted privileges in our house, OK?

ANyway I have only a painfully slow broadband (in process of upgrading) so it takes forever and a day to load. DarylB came over this afternoon and well I thought he was beyond it but I'm sure I detected stirrings in a certain place.

Here's for starters, I'm uploading more and will add as soon as I hop out the shower.

It is. Seriously bald, it makes mejust a tad nervous - and today I've had the back hopping out quite a bit, TBH I can prob live with it but it would be better if it didn't happen. It's a track tyre for warmer weather, not >10C.

Anyways here's a few more.



3/4:



what you see behind, with stock can. I've got a TOR (Triumph Off-Road) it'll go on this week. Even the stock isn't bad. Nice howl at about 6 - 8K rpm but of course I'm not sposed to go there yet

Stick with it, wait a while for it to get warmer and I bet you'll find its really grippy and confidence inspiring, you just need to get passed the lack of tread on the edges bit.

I like that colour scheme, my dads next door neighbour had one in that colour, I had a sit on it and it just felt wayyy to small and for me I kept sliding forward into the tank, dont know what its like to ride though... it is a lovely looking bike.
