    Had a few bits fitted by the dealer, fitted a few bits myself and some more still to do do. I'll put some more pics up later.

    Very nice TC. Did you get a reasonable trade in for your S?
    I am contemplating a test ride next week.
    Just need some decent weather now to get it run in!!

    Depends on what you call reasonable.
    I was always going to take a hit on a year old S, but I got them to increase the original offer, got a discount of some new accessories and added some things in (like swapping the bits from my old Speed to the RS for free).
    But I got what seemed a reasonable deal to me.

    I've got to clock some miles up as the first service is booked for Monday.....:p

    Rear footrests removed.
    LHS was a bit tricky to do, but got there.

    Still got a few bits to do

    GPS bracket and wiring
    Auxiliary socket
    Kriega straps

    Might just get the GPS and socket done at the 500 mile service.

    Congratulations - a very tasteful choice and a beautiful bike :yum

    Great to see you've been busy with the mods - especially the Evotech bits, which always do the trick.

    I fitted my Optimate cable on the left side - if you take the rubber sleeving off the end, you can poke it down a small hole to the left of the battery and it will pop out below the frame and behind the side cowl and indicator. It took 30 minutes of swearing, but I eventually coaxed it through using a pair of long forceps. Put the rubber bits back on and it sits behind the cowl and keeps itself in place.

    Can you help me with a Shift Assist question - if you look at your Bike Setup menu, is it Triumph Shift Assist listed with 'Enable/Disable' above the Indicators option?

    Have you tried Shift Assist?
