  1. That was not what I was taught at school. My teacher made the parsimonious Scots look profligate :joy: Andy

  4. the Iconic parts phone/screen mount is worth the money and is simple to fit. It also works well behind the carbon screen… don’t even need to take screen off to fit it.
    No the full system doesn’t come with a carbon heal guard, it’s a black powder coated one…
     
  5. Good to know. I dropped it off at the dealers the other day, so they’ll fit it to min when it arrives.

    Bummer about the heel guard, you’d think that you’d get one, considering the cost of it, especially as much cheaper Akra end cans come with one.
     
  6. Now run in , hard , cold skippy gritted day but done it, 430 miles of Welsh back roads . Perfect FFF57A11-247F-4DF4-9762-8AD5497E2D26.jpeg FB4723F0-90D7-4BA8-9961-8A15126D51EE.jpeg FB6517A1-8AC5-43E1-BA59-2A53DA16BDB5.jpeg 6BF1D669-0799-43BC-9383-08F69C9AF878.jpeg

  11. Bang on , so much better than the standard seat , the PP screen was creating too much buffering so used the standard screen and it’s great . For me practically overrides looks . I luckily have long legs so may not suit all .

  12. Noooo it’s fine , dirty , salty but loved and cleaned to an inch of its life now .,
    Decided to use the standard as the small screen was annoying me with the noise and winds blast / buffering .

  15. Let's see if you can help me the lucky holders of the PP.
    As I have small arms, the wide handlebar of the V4S is a bit uncomfortable for me and I would appreciate it if you could please measure the handlebar from end to end, to know the difference, since I am thinking of mounting one.

    Thank you very much for your help
     
  16. I’m looking forward to mounting my bike.

  17. Great, me too, I’ve ordered the high seat and a Ducabike sport screen, which in hindsight was probably an impulsive buy but at least now I have a few choices. Thanks..
     
  18. I changed my order to a high seat, as I was able to pretty much flat foot in the high position with normal trainers on the other day. I’m thinking that the higher the seat, the more padding/ comfort.
     
  19. Someone on one of the FB groups did that. They are about 2.5cm shorter each side from memory. I’m trying to find his photos as he put the bars side by side to show the difference. It’s on my list of options to do. The bars are just under £100 in the UK.
     
  20. Mine sits in the garage already but havent ride it yet...tomorrow is the day!! How tall are you? worried about the screenshield buffering as I am 1, 86 m.
