new bike first ride

[russells ride]

picked up the bike around mid day got back home and fitted the baglux harness and the givi airflow screen ,also the winglets, the dealer had already fitted the givi plr365 pannier racks which are removable but to be honest they hardly notice so i wll probably leave them on all the time , as for the ride i went out about 3oclock and did just over a 100miles trying to keep the revs below 4k , no need to tell you all on this forum how good the bike feels even from new,will probably have another ride tomorow as the weather is looking a bit shitty for the weekend , (cant bear to get it dirty just yet!!!)this could be THE perfect all round bike ....time will tell all the best steve ps woudl have posted pics but they are over the limit any suggestions?

A quick way is to set the resolution on your camera/phone to something smaller (800x600) and take the shots again. You can reset the camera afterwards.

Glad the bike is meeting your expectations. You've got some nice roads near you to enjoy. Hope you get the engine broken in as well as run in. Those first 100 miles are important.
