Well, it's finally here. Paid up on Tuesday last week and asked to be contacted about getting it delivered. Heard nothing all week and called on Saturday to be told it would be with me within a couple of hours. Rolled off the van into the garage. I'd bought some Evotech bobbins and a radiator guard. So, fitted the bobbins no problem. Couldn't fit the rad guard as Yamaha have two sets of plastic rivets holding on the rad covers. Gave up in the end. Anyway, was giving it the once over and thought the optional flyscreen I'd bought looked a bit wrong, and very tight to the dash. Turns out they've forgot to put some tall washers in that lift it away from the dash. So, another phonecall in the morning to them. I'm bracing myself for the excuse of either why it happened or why they don't have the bits to sort it.
Anyway, here is a rear quarter shot. I've left out the headlight, don't want to offend too many here.
Didn't get out on it. The roads are still damp and covered in shit, and our estate is a mudbath from all the contruction work, so who knows when I'll get out on it.
It feels like much more bike than the Trident, and a bit special with the SP bits on it.
