I've ordered some matt black vinyl wrap and will put it where my boot rubs
The paint comes off with my finger nail it's very thin

Went for a 3 hour bimble around the Worcester lanes,traffic was very busy and ruined it a bit
Got home and noticed the paint on my left hand side of the swing arm is rubbing off where my boot is catching it,the paints micro thin so not very impressed

Great review,glad you enjoyed the ride

went for a little bimble in the sun on my test route,lovely day for it and the bike felt awesome

You think you'll get one Perkles ? What do you reckon of the stock shock ? yes i think I will invest in one as I plan to keep the bike long term,I cant tell what the rear shock is doing on the road ,I dont ride fast enough to tell. I think it will show up on a track day when im going for it a bit m...
