General topics » picked the bike up

at last I now have sat in my garage the 1250 only done 25 miles on it. all good except I thought I had ordered tyre pressure gauge but seems I didn't how can you have the exclusive with dynamic pack and not have it (my only moan so far) and although it is not the sexier and faster lupin blue (bravo) not too unhappy with the imperial blue in the daylight.

now to get that bloody sat nav mount moved put the x-creen screen on and off to Netherlands

Graham

Enjoy your new ride Graham.

hindsight is a good thing, when I put the sw motech tank bag and ring on the old bike I had the hornig sat nav mount and all was good, now have put the tank ring on and the tank bag is fairly tight up to the OEM sat nav mount not certain if i can turn the bars. Thats a bugger as really want the tank bag for the trip

Congratulations Graham! Enjoy the new bike and maybe we can get together some time...

A bit of a bummer re the Tyre Pressure Sensors. I find them pretty damn essential.

I suppose that retro fitting is a no no?

Congrats, Graham.

I'm only a little bit jealous...

Enjoy the new bike Graham (with or without tpms) and have a great trip.

Snap,
Also have a Imperal Blue 1250 only 40 miles on to replace my Lupin 1200 after 4 years to the day!
I have R bars, Hugger and Hornig Sat Nav mount. Plus a full set of baggage All EXCEPT the Hornig fitted strait back on. Saving upwards of £1000 in extras.
Have orderd the Hornig mount as the 1200 one did a super job and was vibration free.
Thoughts so far, ride is much nicer, gearbox smoother no clunk to wake the neigbors when starting. Power no comment as only 40 miles so gently does it.
Re colour not as bright as the Lupin but wife and daughter love it so it's great.

Pretty sure Imperial Blue is actually now the fastest colour (picking mine up on Friday!)
