Default New bike - will you still talk to me?

I'm a happy camper. Even though the dealer didn't clean it or put any fuel in it my new toy was collected and taken on a long round-the-houses route home on Saturday. No doubt I will get used to the higher revs and the lack of engine braking but I'm already loving the smoooooothness of it.



two years old, just 1100 miles, completely standard except for the centre stand kit. The seat is at least two hours comfy so just need a fender extender and Bagster harness to be just right for me.

Apart from the exhaust I quite like it

No V twin exhaust note, that's what I don't like.

Enjoy though its still got two wheels and isn't made in China

Looks decent.
First on your Xmas list is some ACF50 if your riding through winter, a new exhaust, tail tidy, and a double bubble screen.

Enjoy the new bike
