Well what a day, 12hrs ago I was sitting infront of the computer getting all nervous about what was about to come... My mate came out and picked me up on his bike and we headed off to the shop, long ride in traffic, was pretty shite, got to see what lane splitting in peak was like, not sure if I'm ready for that!

Did all the paperwork and stuff and then I was out the door "keep it under 4000rpm for 1000km...". Well 160km later, I can say the rubber is worn in now. We took it back to his place and hit them with some wet and dry sandpaper to take the wax off, then on to the open road. Good ride up Mt Nebo, which is a 600m high bike haven. Lots of really good twisties, just took it real nice and easy, didnt push what so ever.

Did the rounds after that, saw my sister and familiy, Mum and Dad, a few mates... all said the bike was GREAT. Even had a compliment sitting at the peak of the mountain, a guy came over and was looking over the bike and said how good it looked

So a few pics, nothing to good, was more interested in riding, Tomorrow the creation starts... after work, I hit the tools and the bike! Expect some more pics. These are all not edited, to tired, up at 4am for work tomorrow, I should have taken the day off, pretty sore.

General feeling - - - - > AWESOME!

Congratulations Felix! Feels good huh?. Better that good. We'll understand if you stop living online. You can leave the post whoring to the other members. You've got riding to do. Not to mention the fender hacking and other mods you have to do.BTW you never said what the parents reaction was...

 

[RoadRunner]

Congrats Felix. That's a MEAN looking bike. Even though I've got the red I still love the black. Love your helmet and jacket too. I agree though. You've got to get rid of that pink and blue backpack. haha. Man I went out riding one night with some friends around town for like 2 hours straight. I was so tired but it was so much fun! It never gets old. What a fun bike! It's even better now that it's past it's first checkup and a little closer to break in. Have fun man!

So true, I never pass up the opportunity, even on my bullshit Yamaha, Can't wait until I've got a better bike, It's just going to take it to a whole new level

Congradulations on the new bike!!!!
I agree with R6S_2NR the (Barnie) backpack has to go.

 

[virtualmatrix258]

Congrats bro, its finally happend! Cant wait to see the pics and vid's to come! Oh, and I like the backpack, all you're missing is a little flower on it haha!

Bike looks sick! I'm totally getting a black one now.

 

[Zzka24detzZ]

HOLY GIGANTIC LICENSE PLATE HOLDER BATMAN!!!! HARRRRR j/k! Congrats Felix! I am so envious!

[QldRobbo]

If you look closely, you'll see he has already done his first mod... that massive billboard rego plate holder dissapears!

 

[Guest]

hahaha haha thats funny qldrobbo and vidrtual a flower hahahaha

 

[Felix]

Thank peeps, it was a long wait, but that has all been forgotten! It took me 15mins longer than usual to get home after work today, and I had done just over 50km since yesterday. It was the most fun I've had sober! Not to sure about highway speeds, it can do them no problem, just feels like and effort. I only have about 5mins of 90km in my daily trip at the moment anyway.

Yeah, yeah I know... I like that mil spec orange backpack, good hi vis. Might try and find something a little more comfy, thats my only small backpack. It doesnt look that purple in the flesh, honest! Oh and Qldrobbo notice I lost the backpack and got you to carry my shit afterwards.

That licence plate holder + the fender acted like a wind brake! First of many mods I think. I was thinking about chopping the fender, but after seeing Zartans install and the fact the stock chopped fender will mess with another mod I want to do, looks like Targa is my only option.
