Bored, so.....
Hi, just got my new (insert name of bike).
Wow, this is some machine – better than the reviews I read (and I read them all!). Can't believe how she handles, and that power!!! This bike has it all. To be honest, I don't know why people buy other bikes because my (insert name of bike) does it all. Great build quality, great value and looks fantastic. I got a tremendous deal too (my brother in law designs their brochures). Looking forward to many miles of sheer motorcycling bliss (smiley).
Just one question......
I noticed that the rear suspension is a bit soft (no adjustment....wtf) Anyone changed it over yet? What's the best one to go for? Should I swap over the front too? (looks a bit lame for the rough stuff). And the seat....wtf...is this thing real? Took the bike down to the shops and my arse was nippin' like billy-oh! I kid you not, this thing is hard (grimace). Having said that, I was more concerned about the headlight – couldn't see a thing! What bulbs are you blokes using? Maybe if I had a GPS fitted (what's best?) then I wouldn't need lights. But I do need decent tyres – these stock things are naff – how do you blokes live with them? TK's for me (never use anything else). Probably get the chain guard extender too (plus usual mudflap, shock tube, mudguard extenda etc etc.....just can't believe they don't come as standard (and don't mention the lack of centrestand...wtf...in this day and age!). Mind you, the windscreen's a joke too (headslap) Give me a break – who designed this piece of tat? What are you blokes using? Madstad, Givi, Palmer, Puig, Calsci, Skidmarx, Powerbronze, MRA, Woolworths...which one should I get? Do they work with the bar risers, cos I definitely need them. Do the 23.5mm risers need any cable mods? Why is that, why can't they just make them the proper height in the first place....wtf...? I'd be happy with the oem setup if the fuelling was spot on, but it's fricked! Does the Power Commander sort out that surging nonsense? How can they put this on the market when it's kangarooing down the High St like I've got a sleeping bleeding policeman stuck to my (inadequate) front bleeding tyre? It's worse because the pegs are way to high and the seat pushes your crown jewels into the tank – honestly, who test rides these piles of proverbial?
Anyway, loving the (insert name of bike) and plan on keeping it for years. Anyone modded theirs yet?
