I've only had a belt up and down the street on it so far, and the reverb hose needs to be shortened (it's a new warranty replacement) but I think it's going to be a ripper, looking forward to getting out on Saturday morning now!

Nice.

A bit messy down the side of the garage and as for the length of the grass. ๐Ÿ™„

Well spotted, it's actually a bit of copter tape, can't for the life of me remember why it's there though!

HTS, lawn has been cut since the photo was taken, the slabs are stacked there for a project and the pallets are waiting to be broken down for burning.

Not enough stray hose, zip-ties or electrical treasure for my liking

Safety sticker needs to come off the front rotor and I'd dump the blue grips, aside for that and aforementioned hose, grass and slabs its looking good. 8)

Hoses, random bits of sticker, blue? grips, roll the bars back, filthy front wheel...........

You need to learn how to photograph your bike.
