Well, picked it up today. must say I was a little worried as although I have ridden many motorcycles over the last 39 years, none have been twist and go.

Very surprised how quick it gets to 50 mph, which I think will be my maximum speed until the 600 mile service is done.
Got it home and fitted a Givi top box and in the next week will fit the heated grips I have for it.

Was surprised how difficult it was to remove the body work needed to fit the box, never seen clips like that before. Gave them a good spray of Lithium grease before replacing.

Have a optimate charging lead to fit to the battery and also a wire for the Tomtom GPS I have. Looking on the net to source some hand guards, might try the Storms or the Pollisports that I have on a KTM.

First impression are very positive, but the Hump has to go!! :x
