Managed to get out for an hour to get used to the bike properly, it's been 3 weeks since my cbt so a little rusty but got more confident as the ride went on. Just a little trip around local roads that I know quite well, and where all the side roads and potential hazards are, will go a bit further next time out. It's a shame it's going to throw it down for the weekend.

Handsome bike for a 125 that, enjoy and take it easy
It was my preference as it had more of a bigger bike feel to it, it's nice and comfy and even if it's a placebo effect it's a bit more confidence inspiring from the off. Going to build up slowly, use it get the low speed manoeuvres better, get the sequencing for the road a bit smoother. It's not particularly natural yet but to be expected, 24 years driving compared to a 1 day cbt and an hour out on my own. Really enjoyed it though and wish I had done it earlier in life but I think I'm appreciating the experience and challenge of it more now.Amazing what you can fit on a bike.
Moving scrubs from volunteer makers to Lincoln hospital.
Apologies for vomit inducing worthiness. To make up for it I popped my first acceleration wheelie with all that on the back. Utterly accidental and in no way under control.

Looks properly uncomfortable with those clip ons. Yep, we call the riding position “focussed”, good fun for 30 minutes.....

Not been out for 2 weeks as I'm waiting for a software update to arrive from ktm before I book it in for its running in service and i cant be arsed to visit a dealer twice
Today I motivated myself to peel of some of those stickers new bikes come with, make no mistake ktm like to stick stickers all over the place, most components have what can only be described as pound shop stickers stuck on everything
