well I am the prowd owner of a Blazing oranage Speed triple. picked it up at 11 am this morning. been 4 months since I was last on a bike. So was a bit apprehensive beforehand. looking forward to it but still a bit worried.


went for a ride on my own over to abergavenny (south Wales), to get the 3,500RPM for the first 100 miles done. not its 5,000RPM until 500 miles. I'm doing as per the book. my choice.

I was nervious at first but the bikes so easy to ride. comfy, quick, looks good. well I think so. and soo happy I saved hard and bught it.

got back a bit late this evening. the wife thought i would be back about 2-3Pm not after tea

but great to be back on a bike and my new bike

will uplaod pics when I have sorted them out later

not a prob, I was always more up above the fairing on my fazer. so not much difference. the running in period means I was only doing 60-70 anyway. but had a bloody good day

That's great! I feel like I'm above the fairing on the sv, but people make out you get your head ripped off on nakeds, which puts me off.

I've got a naked Hornet with a fly screen thing, and a daytona 675. At 100 imperial units, there's not much in it with wind blast.

It's a great looking bike and there is nothing like that "I've got my new bike" feeling.

I hope you have many happy miles together.

Ride safe and enjoy.
