Agreed, I won't mention the EU, even in jest as some people can't seem to tell when I'm jesting.
So, I've been around the dealers and it seems that the black ones are hard to find. A2 at Gravesend had a blue one and Faversham have a fleuro one in stock but I'm not keen on them.
Dealers can't seem to get allocated enough of them and earliest for a black one was beginning of September. :eek
Popped in to see two of my old school friends who run a bike shop in my town and guess what....... Ordered one today in black due in end of July and they've waivered their commission on a finance deal so it's all good.
The fact that my gearbox on my car has been making a suspiciously terminal noise over the last few weeks has had me holding back but then the longer I left it the waiting times were getting longer and longer so I thought, "Foc it" and took the plunge.
I just can't get that test ride out of my head and the performance was everything I've always wanted in my bikes and have found myself tweaking them to buggery but never quite achieving it.
Whether it's going to be a good distance bike, only time will tell but going to put a screen on it and IMO an essential add-on a rad and oil cooler guard.
Roll on end of July.
