Awesome Joe, looking forward to ride report!

So decided to take the 10 up the Bells Line of Road to run her in and get comfortable, just an easy run not pushing hard.

What can I say I got comfortable very quickly in the bends, I put 120 km on her yesterday to show her off to the nephew but they were mostly straight road.
Again I can’t get over how easy a 175hp 1000 bike is to ride, admittedly I am running it in.

The steering is so light tips in very easy and hold a tight line until I upped the pace then things got interesting
I have not adjusted the suspension and the ride at times was harsh ( I may have knocked off the compression 1/4 turn at both ends ) when the pace was increased. The brakes were good not great so will see how they are after a few more kays.

After getting home and decided to check the tyre pressures (I didn’t check them because I was thinking I would try standard 36f,42r )
They were a bit out 43f,45r!! I didn't have one slip or slide so the bike must be great and that could be the reason it didn’t feel good under brakes in a turn and why the ride was a bit harsh.

Can’t wait for next weekend

looks good mate

Sensational Joe. Congratulations mate, great work. Can't wait to see it.

It's finally here ......next exhaust.
