Its a minter, 51 plate, with very low miles.

when you spend an hour on that seat you'll understand why

I do really like the SP though

Want to keep the bike standard, maybe some cans and most probably a PC too but that will be it, just to make it more town friendly.

I cant really think of a more town-unfriendly bike IMHO. They are snatchy (snigger) low down on the standard fuelling and get as hot as hell (the frame near the footpegs get hot enough to burn). The clutch is also fairly heavy, and bites on the very end of its travel. Having said all that, it is worth making old grannies jump at the lights when you blip the throttle

Get a PC, even if leaving it on a standard can. I got one for Â£155 delivered from the States from Morepower (he goes on the PBMag forum), no import duty to pay (thank Kerrisst)

) Its the most important mod to make and well worth it.

ohh, and don't forget to do the flapper mod....its free, you clean up the dip at 5000rpm and the induction roar is addictive!
