With the corner ripped off ??

You won't lose it in the carpark.

Always fancied a go on one though.

Looks good

It'll get smoked in a drag race though.....no ifs, no butts.
It might be close, but no cigar.
What filter are you running?
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.

Cheers guys,

Standard filter I think Tony, pick her up at 10:00 tomorrow so will update then. Apparently opening up the snorkel and fitting a K&N helps, especially with the Yoshi cans.

Lol, Tony, doh!

Rode her home today, bit chilly on the M25, can tell I'm a fair weather rider. Rides well, needs a new rear tyre, bit of white-lining on the way back. Similar to a Storm, popping and farting on the down shift.

At least it was not raining :thumbup:

I hope you enjoyed the ride Mav even if it was a bit chilly,
