Hi again all. The bike has arrived, no pics yet due to weather work or being too busy riding it! Not a fast red (or slow blue) - it's a silvery blue grey metallic. Plenty fast mind, gonna be a load of fun. Now has some Oxford heated grips on board, next job an oil change. Runs like sewing machine right now though, very pleased especially since it was bought blind. Only issue is a small crack below the front offside indicator as well as a bit of minor grazing suggesting it had a stationary drop at some point. Next spring I'll get it fixed, I know a man who can...
Oh and it has a Delkevic can and headers, an improvement on stock sound without p*ssing off the neighbours at 6.15 when I set off to work. As they say round these parts, Chuffin' Great!
