    Thumbs up

    Confabulations on your new bike! I know you're going to love it and become intimately familiar with all its idiosyncratic thangs. A lot of people don' understand the two wheels of freedom thing, but you're one of them who does!

    Ride safe and enjoy!

    Congrats pal! Stay out of trouble and ride safely!

Because people are stupid, they will believe a lie because they want to believe it's true, or because they are afraid it might be true. People's heads are full of knowledge, facts, and beliefs, and most of it is false, yet they think it all true ... they can only rarely tell the difference between a lie and the truth, and yet they are confident they can, and so all are easier to fool." -- Wizard's First Rule

    By luck I meet up with BuckBuckNo1 and Drum today.

    I think I may have had my bike a little to close to Buckbuck's currently jinked GN250 as after leaving him I lost a bolt from my chain guard which has now been bent/chewed by my chain/rear wheel

    Lets hope it's not a sigh of things to come as I only have 156k's on the clock

    Hey good to meet you today Dodger, the bikes looking pretty flash!

    You might want to see if TSS will replace that chain guard for you, and I'd think about checking to see if there are any more loose bolts!

    Fucken poor assemblers, tsk tsk.

    Buy some loctite and look for all the "shit, that might come loose" bolts on your bike. The first things to go should of been the rubber pads on your boot pegs. Unscrew them and use loctite. Everything else should be sweet.

    I've only lost 2 bolts in 20,000 km so it's not that bad.

    Hyosung for Life, yo.

    Never

    Take it back to TSS - It's the putting right that counts.

    Now that sounds like fun.
    There seems to be a good number of bikers in SV these days. (and a few scooters)
