Its worth the wait. will be changing the bars for the lower full throttle type in black, also those wishing to know if the Classic saddle is leather it certainly feels and smells like it, not that I'm a saddle sniffer.

Should have mine very soon as its within the first 10 of the consignment to the UK

Snells at Alton posted a picture of one on their Facebook page and it looks lovely.


I've got a red icon, also changing the bars to the FT ones.


Will be keen to find out if the brown leather seat is more comfy!!

I'm bound to say this but in my opinion after sitting on both yes it is. if your not far from you pop in and try it if you are contemplating a change.

Stop teasing, it look fabulous, like the photos.

OK, I will stop

From the pictures on the net, I already loved the look of the Icons. I bought the Classic on the specs, not because I thought it looked best in the pictures that were on the net. I even thought about changing to a red Icon over the past few months as cool pictures were popping up everywhere of Icons. Not so for the Classic.

But finally it arrived and in real life, it is a proper beauty 0

Hopefully there will be one in there when I get the first service and the bars fitted! All they need to do now is make matching brown grips!

Yep but while I'm riding my bike in the cold you will be inside your F30 with the heating turned up to 26%

Anyway how are you enjoying your new steed. The Akrapovic is a few weeks away.

Great fun.

Going to get a set of the FT bars on and change/take off the mirrors.

May get the forks re valved and set up properly as they are pretty crude.

Check out the Remus hyperfine slip on>

Trying to find one in the Uk

I to am changing to the FT bars but keeping the mirrors. will probably go down that route with the forks following Hedonisam's conversion with the Olins.

Re Remus try these people they will be able to help you out

Exhausts

Pete, I find the fit of the Bullitt quite good. No pressure on the forehead. I have a size medium but ordered the extra thick cheekpads because I need to eat more hamburgers

funny post!
I tried one yesterday and two today. I feel a bit of pressure with a medium, but the large is WAY to big. Hmmm....mske my head is jacked-up I may buy one and then stick a bowling ball inside for a week to stretch it out. love the brown leather interior on the gloss blk!

The fitting instructions are to get one that fits on top, you can change the cheeks pads according your chubbiness

Just over 600 km's on the dash and my Classic rear tire has seen a screw in the flesh, so now I have a flat tire, bummer :crying:
I think I had two flat tires in the last 23 years and now after one week ........
