Great bike-especially for new riders wanting that big bike feel for much less. Everyday bike that will give as good as you can give. Look after her an she'll do the rest!. Awesome bike and i'm in NO hurry to pa Continue reading...

Got one here in NZ .got a mechanic who specialises in em too .

Gr8t nick goes so well .org 80K KM  .RED white n Blue later model .Reservoir gold calipers black wheels .Pimped out with some HRC & ELF stickers where it counts.Red Motogp reflector rim stickers .

Rain or shine .Tyres still available ive been running Dunlops .Theyre ok but the bridgey bT010 seemed grippier.The dunlops softer.Ive got midrange slightly harder for wear & more tread sportmax range .

No better handling yeah a bit soft but thats good for the road.

Our fuel here in NZ is crap so i run BP98 plus octane booster .Then its better .

Every ride puts a smile on your face. Yeah gets you respect from all.

Illhave topart with it one day ..or do i ..
