Hi,

I just signed up today but to answer your question, Yes, I've got one.
I picked it up yesterday so I'll not know much about it (just yet) but I'm happy to learn/discuss

Oh wow.. you worked quickly. Sorry about your tyre though... that's painful. Could it not just be plugged? or is that not safe?

I'm looking to do very similar. Need a new exhaust, I want to De-Cat as well so need that link pipe, still exploring options. Akra is a bit pricey, I'd rather a smallish one but not found one I like yet... would love a TaylorMade under belly one, but I don't think they exist in these parts of town. If you have any recommendations, I'd love to hear it.
Tail tidy, deffo, its a must.
small license plate, also a must - what size did you get?
louder horn is a very good idea!
heated grips is a good idea too, especially for an all year rider like myself...
I want to install a ScottOiler too
crash bungs.

I've got a blue and white one... I'm trying to load a picture but the picture hosting website is down now... there's a pic in the newbie section though, as it worked earlier on today.

I think that's it for now, but I know all about the mod bug addiction... Hopefully i can resist and actually pay some bills first. lol.

9x7 inches is the smallest you can go legally,never had a problem with mr plod but there is always one out there,
looking for a belly pan to cover the pipes,£200 though is expensive.here's mine and the lads nuda 900 in the background.
