Well after 8 months, it's actually here, and parked in the back room. First in Brisbane from what I have been told. If you have one, let me know, would love to go for a ride.
Knocked up just 45km before it got too dark and cold.
The full throttle is sitting there, looking awesome, just waiting to tear it up tomorrow. >


From today's ride - smooth acceleration, plenty of torque. Didn't push too hard as it needs to be broken in yet.
Bit twitchy on gear changes (might just be my WR250 tap and go style), but this will be sorted soon when I get used to her.


Longer run tomorrow. More to follow.

So had a good run today - although i took the cold route (was down to 16C) at one stage according to temp gauge - frickn cold when you only have summer gear on - but that's my own stupid fault.

Loving the bike - smooth acceleration, sounds awesome with the Termi's onboard.
Was at it continually for about 2.5 hours and not sore, so very comfortable as well.
Can't wait to get the break in done to open it up a little.

See you out there.

I think the temp gauge is not very accurate on mine... Rode it to work in Brisbane the other day with 8 degrees outside and it was showing 15!! I wish.
