  1. Finally after years of dreaming, months of contemplating and weeks of trawling through the used adverts, I finally picked up my summer wheels.. Cant wait to get out on it..

  2. lovely! CONGRATS!
    Track only?
     
  3. Nice pic! :)
     
  4. Nope, strictly for the road. Had the mirrors off as I was changing the screen. Will be putting the plate by the exhaust under the seat. Not as strict here in Ireland about having the huge number plates.
     
  5. cool, what about the winkers? make sure you get enough travel for the swing arm.
    And try progressive and flat settings on the rear shock. they are very different. :upyeah:
     
  6. I have the integrated tail lights. I was gonna ask about the progressive setting. Would you recommend it for Irish bumpy B roads ? Flat setting ?

  7. ah, nice.Is it legal? if you were involved in a r.t.a. for example?
    Bumpy roads, I have mine in P. with custom softer damping and rebound settings.
    You will probably need to remove some preload on the rear shock too, so you get 25-30mm sag.
    its way too hard from the factory for bumpy roads. just play about until you are happy.
    i knock 10-15% out the tyres too. All helps.
     
  8. It's legal... Ish.

    Thanks for the suspension help. Must make a few adjustments before I get it out. Partly guessed it was gonna be rock hard. I've been reading the thread on here about suspension setting so gonna try some of the tried and tested settings. Thanks man.
     
  9. Lovely pic. Yes try progressive, you'll keep your dentures in better.
     
  10. Great photo...enjoy. On Irish roads your kidneys may get a bit of a workout though :)
     
  11. glad to help. I cant tell you how hard they are!!
     
  12. Integrated tail lights .. Indicators are not there .. I have mine under the seat .. Looks cool but I had to fit led indicators as well :)

    Nice bike
     
  13.  
  14. Sorry, I meant integrated indicators. There's a row of led's in the tail lights to act as indicators. They flash orange
