12,000 Miles Later

[Dibles]

So 12.5K later....

 

Its my daily ride, been off road a few times and regular long distance ride 1000km. Would not change it for anything!

 

Only issue was the spokes which i had changed to stainless steel(only corrosion issue)....brought from Off road.de. by me, fitted by UK dealer free under warranty. 

The Scorpions great for road use. gone through one rear and nearing the first front soon. no reason to change. 

 

On my long runs i found keeping the revs at a point that the Eco indicator stays on makes a massive difference to consumption.

fuel lasts noticeably longer on the long open stretches.

 

It lives outside in all weathers, used in all weathers, washed weekly, coated in ACF50 GT85 and so far so good. 

 

Lights amazing! the headlight is fantastic, one of the best things! People moan about light wobble vibration etc but i don't give a hoot about that. its dampened by rubber mounts so it is what it is. I got the PIAA Yamaha spots, the front and rear Plus indicators and combined its awesome at night. Im seen, i can see and for me that's all that matters. the light emitted is clear, bright and far reaching.

 

its good on the motorway, twisty lanes and off road, its a bike that isn't going let me down!
