Forgive me please........

Took the toy for it's first real decent run on Friday and all I can say is Woo friggin' hoo. What an awesome little bike. Goes like stink, the engine is absolutely stunning. The riding position is more dirt bike than road bike but with an 850 triple underneath you that is as light as buggery it all adds up to grin factor one thousand.

The suspension is pretty ordinary and feels hard over small bumps even though you can bottom it without too much drama. In order of money spent...Fender eliminator, pick up knobs, radiator guard (all ordered), Ohlins or equivalent front and back to be organised this week. That's about it, I don't know that I'll worry about exhaust, unless I have $1000 to throw away the stocker sounds pretty good and I don't mind a bit of stealth.

It is a license loser though if you're not careful. It's got so much torque and is so light that just a little punch out of a corner has you in "go straight to jail" territory in no time.

The stock Dunlop D214's seem a pretty decent albeit somewhat soft tyre as well.

It all adds up to a sensational little bike that will keep you smiling for days. Can't wait for the next ride.

sounds like we need to do a wisemans run again

Nice ride mate, I too have been unfaithful I was looking at the MT09 and the BMW S1000r but I finished up buying this.
The 12 is having a little holiday at the moment, This is such a great bike to ride and always puts a smile on my dial.

Very nice mate.

Traiterous lot however I must admit the Tracer has me thinking of a change from green to blue

[Blurr]

It's sitting on a Kawasaki mat

and it's a kind of purple colour like the 2000 ZX9's. I could've got Orange but that was just Gay looking.

Congrats.

Orange would have suited you just fine

Congrats Glen, looks like heaps of fun and I'll still talk to you,

I'm with Dave#3 & Russel, orange would have suited you

Your back, wrist and other normally suffering bits are thanking you too

[Glen]

Thanks Pete. I just ordered a set of rear stand spool pickups so I can use my front stand as a rear for it.

Cheers

Glen
