4 Years and 25K miles
2006 bog standard model, TPS replaced under recall. think it might have had a remap at 6K service to improve the low speed fueling but now run CO at -10 from default which has improved things and I use it daily for city commuting
Let down one once after 18months with dead battery Good points Love the handling and its ability to hold corner speeds shows up many a sportsbike. B and unclassified roads are its natural home Excellent fuel consumption, 65-70mpg open roads 55-60mpg city commuting Comfortable and high visibility riding position but need me airhawk Finish on frame, engine and cycle parts holding up well after 4 winters, due no doubt to the liberal application of ACF50 Ease and cheapness of the home service, though access to valve adjustment is very tight, requires removal of radiator if much cursing is to be avoided A rear Metzler Tourance will hang on for about 10K Still on original chain/sprokets, look to be good for 30K+, helped by a Scottoiler with duel injectors Bad points Motorways....not what it was made for It will cruise at 80 but me eyeballs start to bleed after a few miles Finish on wheels is crap aluminium paint coming off Lucky to get 5K miles of a set of EBC pads Cush drive rubbers started to show wear at 15K Would I get another one...NO... i'm sticking with this baby... we,ve bonded Overall value 9/10 |
