  1. Pretty sure it’s available for the scrambler. It’s not the cheapest bit of kit but IMHO it’s worth every penny. No bulky lock to carry around, no chance of accidentally moving the bike with the lock attached.
     
  2. Heh...left hand fitment on that...my mate has a scrambler with one fitted.. :)
     
  3. Hello! Been there and done that in the past (first couple of years after passing my test) Not much fun dodging the ice and salt in the Welsh hills at the mo so it can stay tucked up for now.

  8. It's a bit hard to tell from photos but the wheels look fantastic in the flesh, a special mixed wet paint that gave a similar appearance to the SL :upyeah:

  9. Colour aside, the standard 899 wheels are really heavy. I've recently converted my 899 to SSSA. All the stock bits are in my 'shed' surprising how heavy they are. I now have entry level 1299 wheels but if a magnesium rear comes up for the right price I'll be all over it.
    I remember your bike coming up for sale, someone has put £££ into it. You got a great buy :upyeah: Suspension and slipper clutch will transform the bike, termi's are a bonus.
