My perfect bike(in white), the only bike i can think of that i wouldn't modify at all.
it needs a tail tidy, the number plate hanger is an eye sore, thats all i want to do... when i have the spare £120!! lol

nice one. very jealous. can't wait till i am a good enough rider to be able to suitably own/handle something like this even if only for a 6 month blast. don't think i would be able to warrant having something so focused for more than that.

Adam, nice bike and sounds like a lot of fun....but be careful! Just reading about your trip to Spain too and I think if you got caught 'testing' your top speed over there you will find yourself lobbed in to a jail quicker than you can say 'scary cellmate'.

Once oyu have done the naught-to-silly a few times, you will get bored sh1tlees in a few hours of riding. You will then realise the nause/frustration of trying to keep the thing at near legal speeds ...

Sorry to bring a downer to things, but I have made this mistake before myself ...
