Top tip. When you fit them. Make sure the bolts are tight, so that your rear brake lever doesn't fall off.

Got my mates YPVS Hybrid on the road today, few teething problems to iron out regards its running but it handles a treat and looks lovely.

I had a perforated one piece on today and it was cauld, especially when you went through the hills with snaw still on them.

That said I love my new alpinestars smx plus boots. I've had a couple of the smx5 ones but these are comfy as fk. Worth the extra money. Very cosy as well. Just like wearing sambas, I can only imagine what the super tech are like.

Also I was amazed in the range of the asv levers. There must be 10 settings.

Also my biggest problem with triumph bikes is the stock suspension was too stiff for my weight. I was gonna get a new spring but since putting on aa stone it's so much more compliant

Though it would have been cheaper to buy a spring than the amount of haribo I tan weekly
