Well out I jolly well went, what a day rain rain and mud :no still the things I noticed. One its an arse to park up trying to find the right camber so the bugger wont fall over!! Two bloody well kept hitting the horn when indicating,will get used to that in time.Three need bar risers and foot peg lowering kit,bar risers on order and will convert my old versys 650 vario pegs by machining up a mount.Its only cus Im old n broken!! loved the rest of it toasty warm nuts from the engine lol,great power delivery ,when the road dried out!!front brake spot on and the rear works fine.Its back under its cover it lives outside. Not sure I will commute on the beast till I have sorted the bars n pegs:thumbup

Still doing the Horn thing but have now sold my S/Triple so I might get it right , mind you I try not to use indicators as one tends to forget to cancel them! And if they can't hear the bike (Akro no baffles) they won't hear the horn???

The horn is a common problem

I have ( on more than one occasion ) grabbed a load of horn to attract the attention of a blind motorist- only to indicate him to death------duh , from that point ( point of survival) you might as well have a brush with his door mirror and a healthy hand full of revs as you flyby
