Not supposed to chop tree's down here so I topped mine, just a couple of tree trunks left standing that I prune every year.

Pictures of the rearsets please.

And does the control arm go through the frame (as original) or does it travel across the frame?

Always liked the look of them.
I knew the GenI was a decent bike, the GenII is pretty cheap so I went for one.
I came from an electronic 180hp bike so was disappointed with the power delivery, handling was pretty sloppy and the seat uncomfy.
I've chucked a bit of cash at it and I'm now satisfied with how it goes/handles/stops.

Would I buy another.......no.
I would buy an R1 and put Renthals on, should have done that in the first place... :rolleyes

That's a good price!

The GenII is a serious disappointment if your coming from a litre sportsbike.

It goes like a wet blanket under 7krpm until you chuck a pile of money at it to make it go properly  :rolleyes

But once its sorted it goes like a '99 R1.

35
What's the difference between the gen 1 and the gen 2 calipers? Apart from the obvious colour difference!

Not sure, think they are the same...

Sorry for the hijack  :rolleyes

36
I need new front calipers, what condition are yours in? Do you have some spare too? Ones off Christo's Bike?

Ive got a set of GenII silver spots for sale, if your interested send me a pm.

Im a tight wad  :rolleyes

If it doesn't make the bike go faster or handle better then it would need to be gold and rolled in glitter to get my attention  :D

Or forget the FCE and PC5 and get an ECU remap that addresses all of the issues.

Returning the problem to Garmin is standard procedure, dealers wont touch defective units/mounts.
Luckily Garmin service is second to none and youll get a new unit/cradle, whatever is defective...

On a side note, I see the 590LM is due out soon........I want!!!!

For what Zumo's cost it should arrive in perfect condition.

Did you buy off ebay?
If you did, Garmin will only honour units bought from authorised dealers... :rolleyes
A lot of the Ebay units are refurbs.
