Cheers Mickey.

Slim - Yes I intend to look after it very well indeed - it's only done 250miles in the last 18 months & has been stood for over 12months  :eek so its straight to the garage for a full service & fluid change. Then it's going to be stored till spring? - No way am I riding this baby through winter!

Red - It was/ is a standard color on the 2010 ABS model. I've been waiting a while for one to come up & have hopefully managed to get a good one.  :)

It's currently got the standard can fitted in black. I'm looking at replacing it -when the finances allow -with either ( in no particular order):
 
Leo Vince GP Pro
 
Mivv ghibli
 
Yoshimura TRC
 
Remus Powercone
 
Kitcrazy - you wouldn't happen to have a copperdawg speedscreen 2 for sale by any chance would you?  ;)

Well, have you got it yet?

See the previous owner has a VXR, likes his fast motors then!

Yes locksmith - picked it up this afternoon. Fortunately the sun came out a bit & the roads were fairly dry. :)

I got my figures wrong in a previous post - The last service on the bike was carried out on 11/12/11 @ 6752 miles.

I took it straight in for a service today 18/01/14 @ 6773 & I rode it 16 miles to the dealers.

I'm over the moon with it & can't wait for the better weather.....& to get the bike back next week of course!  :D

Like that, was watching one on evilbay with 3500 miles on it, was way down in Oxford though so a bit far for me, enjoy your new toy.
