Proud new owner here !

Post by the_island »

Hi Everyone, new member here,
I managed to get a great deal on this 05 model. The upside is, it's been well cared for and has plenty of mods, however it's done 77K kms. It feels very tight and smooth to ride, like a bike with half the mileage and those Yoshi pipes are pretty loud but very nice.
I take delivery in a few days and will ask a few more questions when I'm able to examine the bike more closely - I'm sure I'll discover more mods and upgrades already fitted as I go along (e,g. its got alloy master cylinder reservoirs).
I'll probably go the high mount exhaust route soon, any tips or suggestions about options are welcome.
Im in Melbourne Oz, Thanks

Welcome aboard from Melbourne :thumbup:

If the bike has been regularly serviced? then 77Km is not a huge mileage for one of these bikes,

Chris.
