Greetings from grantham
« on: June 02, 2023, 16:22:06 »
Hello all I have recently purchased a 650 vstrom that had been stolen and damaged. My thinking was to fix it and take my lessons on it unfortunately the instructor can't store it so I'm using her bike for now until I pass my direct acess and then the vstrom will be unleashed.

Repairs have been completed and clutch adjusted so I now have a fully functional bike
