They do know how to finish a bike nicely. The little details are what make it special.

What was the fueling like stock ?
I've always read they are quite snatchy on/off throttle but never ridden one to find out.
 
Spoonz, stock bike was rubbish, it was dangerously lean the bike was far to hard unless on billiard smooth surfaces, the riding position was crippling, so there you have the stock bike.

Now i have a different animal altogether, fueling is silky from low down, it is now fast as feck, riding position, i can ride it all day now, handling is not 100% i still have a bit of tweaking with oil level in the forks and a couple of other adjustments to make, but i am nearly there with it.

What amazes me is the attention to detail on everything right down to small fasteners, i can whip the complete fairing off in under five minutes including the nose cone.

The bike in standard trim is too focused for the road IMO, i have worked away at getting it to what i want and believe me it nearly went on the market a few times.

Cheers for the comments guys:thumbup
