Snap. First excursion on mine today, been in the garage since Oct, awesome! Seems quicker than I remember the old version and front gets lighter too, but sure that's just because it's 18 months or so since I rode a fast sports bike

Gotta sort suspension tho, no idea how Tim rode this thing like this! Oh and add a little pressure in tyres, realised when I got home that was the one prep thing ( did chain etc) I forgot yesterday.....23 front 25 rear may not be he best for the road
