    Scratching the itch

    Well its been nearly 2 years since i had to sell my R1 and the itch to get another bike has been getting unbearable!
    I was in a bike shop the other day and the salesman told me about a bike that had just come in as a part ex and he wanted to get rid of it as it was a bit old for the showroom.
    Also the colour scheme is a bit "Different"

    I'm picking it up tomorrow

    The Laguna Seca colours are starting to grow on me but the plan is to change them eventually!

    My only problem now is the Team America song is constantly stuck in my head

    I had a Smoky Joe Replica version By Dream Machine paint . Find out if it has the Endurance range tank 22 ltr ? That was an option on mine that was worth the money

    I had a 'Storm - just not in Evil Kenevil livery.

    It was an awesome bike - you'll love it. Mine had the 16l fuel tank, so most journeys were simply between petrol stations.

    They've got plenty of grunt and sound good with the right cans. If you find the brakes are a little soft, wack in some braided lines.

    Enjoy it

    Oh - and keep the colour scheme. It's good to be different.

    Questionable colour scheme AND 3 spokes! It's a modern classic!

    I vote keep it as is
