    Come on - pass or fail you can't leave us hanging?

    I'm hoping you've passed and you're out somewhere enjoying the roads in the decent weather! (As opposed to drowning your sorrows in a pub...)

    Excellent Dude.

    You must feel pretty happy with yourself.

    Now try and not be a statistic and crash in the first 6 months of owning it......I did it hurts and it's not big or clever. :oops:

    However, get it on the track as soon as you can. :twisted: You'll love it. The road is just that bit of tarmac that leads to the tracks.

    Thanks everyone for your kind words, I will be taking it carful and will only be opening it up where it is safe and I can see well ahead! (Ie straights) until I get used to the bike completely as its very different to the Honda hornet I've been riding.

    Will be getting the arrow fitted this weekend.

    Yep agreed first 6 month is the hardest not to crash...I did too...a tip, dont ride angry!!

    Enjoy the bike and be careful if you got the supercorsa tyres dont go hooning it round a bend when youve just started riding...wait till they are warm!

    I'd advise having a look at Snipers post the in twat of the week section, in fact look at everyone's posts in that section - mine included, its not hard to get into trouble and be a dick on a bike, that's for sure. We're all living proof of that! :lol:

    Enjoy your freedom, your bike and being part of the clan, welcome in James. ;)
     
  12. Congrats on passing, now the learning begins :?
    i moved from a Hornet to a Daytona after 12 months, its a very different feeling, kinda like being on tip toes, i was tense at first and holding on too tight, just try and relax in the knowledge that the bike is way better than you are, if you come to a corner a bit quicker than you expected, don't panic just tip it in and it'll get you round. :)

    Fitted all my GB racing engine covers, sliders, tank protectors and Arrow exhaust.
