First drive



fitted number plate despite sod's law ooccruing as one of the plastic bolts fouled up the meatal diagonal but nothing Mr Dremel could not fix; also drilled the screen to fit tax disc, checked wheel nut wer tight and off I went!!!!

fun!!!! but I need/want more power and more practise on changing gear quickly. think the rear is a bit too hard though.

a couple of things to sort out - something is rattling at the back and when I got back, having driven into my wheelie bin the engine is idling at 1500 rpm

roll on the weekend.

Souds like a good mornings fun.
I had a rattle behind me when I was first riding around, It was the sholder harness rattling on its mounting point. It sounded like something was falling off underneath.

i also get a rattle from behind me - its the pin on the extinguisher, keep forgetting to gaffer tape it down.

i bet you enjoyed the run out. Good timing for the weather also.

I get a rattle and a whining noise from the passenger seat when I drive above about 20mph.

It's difficult to make it out but sounds like "too fast, slow down, this is too noisy.."

I think there's an easy fix though.
