    Hey all,

    Had the morning off so thought I'd pop into the garage and make some changes!!!

    So I've got a new seat on which I'm super pleased with!!!

    Added a headlight grill and raised the front mudguard!

    All in all I'm really happy with how it all looks...what do you guys think?

    I can apply for license on Tuesday so not long till I can take her out...needless to say I'm a touch excited!!

    Here's a couple more pics...

    Hi Matt,
    Bike looks great!
    But if I'm being dead honest I am not a big lover of the brown seats.
    It is a purely personal choice and you did ask, if you like it that is what is important.
    Good luck with getting your licence back, the better weather is now on its way.

    Good luck getting your licence back, bet you're glad you didn't sell the bike now! Hopefully we'll get that meet up soon

    Looks good dude

    I'm with you - tweaking ready for the sun.

    Only change I'd make is knobbly tyres but I just think they suit the higher guard.

    Looks good, but agree with the heavier tread pattern thought... summat like the Michelin Sirac would look sweet.

    Don't worry about the brown seat, that will mute when you sit your arse on it for a load of miles And will look great "weathered in"

    Hi Matt, is that front tyre on the right way round? I'm not 100% sure but it looks to me like it might be on backwards ?? Maybe worth checking with the sidewall arrow ?

    Don't know how much difference it would make, but just for peace of mind.

    I'm not sure to be honest...I'll take a look! I just assumed the garage would've put it on the right way around!

    Will check and let you know!!

    I've been looking online whilst "working" and there seems to be a few on the same way round! Will still look when I finish though!
