It's me!
« on: 11 April 2016, 08:37:50 pm »
Hello all,

Just over a week ago I bought my first big bike after passing my A license on the warmest of February days. It's a lovely example with just 23k miles on it. Certainly beats the YBR125 I had before.

My first upcoming mods are fitting a Givi Monokey rack and my TomTom Rider so I can take it for a few trips around the Essex countryside. 


If anyone needs me, I'll be in the angry dome.

That looks very clean and nice :)  I've got one just like it, but in red. Hope you got it at a good price. You will find that the FZS600 is great first big bike. Very satisfying and welcome to the club. Where abouts in Essex are you?

A fair price considering it came with a fresh Yamaha dealership major service. There were cheaper ones about but few in as good condition. One previous owner!




I'm in the bit of Essex that's within the M25, IG7.


Got a few more things in the post:
- a grab handle to put back in the place of the rack that the previous owner put on;
- some Osram Nightbreaker bulbs;
- a Haynes manual; and,
- a new number plate with country label.


Was considering of writing up the TomTom through a little H4 shim so that I don't have to splice into the wiring harness.
