Welcome in Kev, good name that, Kev. You need to sort the colour out fella, blue is the one to go for matey. Have a good read through the forum to see what needs doing to make the bike bullet proof.

cheers lads,
have had a good read, is due a service in around 1000 miles,gonna hit the tensioners and reg/rec then.
about the colour, the paint needs a bit of attention, but the yellow is a reall eye catcher,imo, although repsol colours would be nice!
but yeah, what a bargain,thousand notes, and this thing goes like poo of a shovel!
guy i bought it off was about 7 ft and was nearly crying as i drove off, just didnt fit him.

check out sebs repsol storm (chinese fairings) and it cost less than a respray in pearl yellow, trust me you can't match the colour, you have to respray the whole bike.
7ft tall, yeti on this forum is 6ft10 and he's ok on his bike, the bloke you bought the bike from must be a wuss :lol:
