Use it like it should be, don't worry about getting it dirty. Just buy a new one :-)

Enjoying the updates. Pictures aren't showing. Recommend you open a photobucket.com account. Easiest way to embed hi-res images really and they have Android/iOS apps too.
seems they may be working for some and not others

AS for keeping the bike clean I have added paint protection myself, it's not perfect but will do the job.
The techspec I had to buy from the US and no one in the uk do them yet. or sell them over here.

Using a lot of gtechniq stuff as I've found to to be very good and last ages. Using C5 on the wheels and Crystal Serum Light on the bodywork over the paint protection. it's not cheap but if it lasts half as long as they say on a bike or car being used daily then it should last a long time on my bike
The cleaning and detailing is quite cathartic - especially with a finish and details as nice as on the H2. One drive is blocked at work, so I guess that's why I can't see pics - will have a look tonight.

Any further plans for mods?
Does anyone yet make a belly pan for these bikes as to me that area looks unfinished.

Pics work for me...very much so...the pic of all the filth over it however, churns me up inside!

The H2, for me, is the most interesting new road bike available at the moment, its where id put my money anyway.

I've never even seen a bike like yours in the flesh so no, its not boring. Keep the picture's coming too, not just when its been polished either.

Wheelie pictures, I wanna see wheelie pictures.

I have embedded the pics via my One drive as PH won't allow the size of my pics so hoping you can see them
Totally off-topic, but what do you think of the GT86? I'm considering one to replace my daily driver when the time comes, but don't know if it will feel special/fun/raw/noisy enough.

The H2 looks awesome by the way.

As for mods not really . Only thing I may look into is a Brock ECU flash to remove the limiter and give's you a little (loads) of extra power

I'll get some vid up soon. and for wheelie pics i'll try.

I did st myself Friday opening it up. it's got so much grunt i was pushed back into the back of the bike, throttle opened up and felt the front come up only a little but seemed like it for a half a mile. probably was only 10 feet

I bought the 86 for the wife but she does not get much chance to use it wink
Lovely car. toured france, Swizerland, into german including autobahn and belgium last May. lovely car to do 400 miles in a day easy and gave me 40MPG average over 1700 miles. and that included a few triple figure blats on the auto ban.

Added wheels, exhausts so now sounds as good as it drive.
We have had it 2 years in July and still give's me a smile every drive. And enough room for my 10 and 13 year olds in the back for journeys less than a hour.
can't fault it

Just my opinion but you have to consider getting that belly pan, it really does finish it off nicely.

Well just looked at the 250,000 yen price tag which with google shows £1600 for the cheapest as it goes up in price. no not at the moment but see what they do in the future

The Belly pan looks nice but I think the difference without makes the H2 stand out more.

It's nice to be different

Well I also like the aero screen on that website too, bet it costs a fortune though.
