Find this type of bike suits my riding style.Bought her yesterday and was advised to take the long route home to avoid central London but as I am took the challenge. Arrived home after passing through major standstill traffic with a smile plastered to my stupid face that was still there when I went to bed. Going to put new tyres on her today and looking for an aftermarket exhaust to complete the sound.
You won't regret it mate they are are a great bike although it's hard to define exactly why but they just are .. might pay to drop that oil & filter straight away because you never know what the last bloke put in it .. and keep the changes regular if you can afford to, (only 3 litres with filter) ..
