HERE SHE IS!!

Postby the smudger » Mon Apr 21, 2014 5:01 pm

I collected this bike this morning, it rides superbly, very clean, not mint but very clean.

It's also more comfortable than I imagined, once the wind lifts you slightly at speed it seems to take the weight off your wrists. I love the Boxer engine, this ones a peach!!

It looks very clean. Nice for a bike that is almost a teenager.

Very kind of the previous owner to only use half of the rear tyre, leaving the rest mint for you to use.

Looks great, as for the sticker a pair of Boxertrix should do the job.

Very nice - defo for the headlight protector - I've just given one away but they're not expensive (but I believe a headlight is!!). Got a faux carbon top yoke protector if you want it - no sticky on it but thin double sided tape would work

Which leads me to the conclusion that I may have a faux HP2S although my carbon firbre is not faux. :laughing1: :laughing4:
