Was lovely to see you happy on new bike enjoying it... remember when I went out for first time on my first bike gpz500 after passing my test the buzz was amazing..keep up the great channel..please ride safe
Great looking bike looks like your having some fun on it. Just take it easy Dude more power than a 2000w bike it will take a bit of time to get used to it no rush especially in these damp conditions with leaves now on the roads. Stay safe and enjoy 👍
mate rest your hand on the outer end of the throttle side of the bar and use the non moving end part to temper your throttle inputs. it will make for much smoother throttle work. i bought a brand new mt09 a year ago and then did my test so im in the same boat as you. perfect first bike for grown ups. ( i kept the grom i bought for learning gears on and its still my fave bike today)!
Just got one funny because Ebikes built one that dragged me along a 30mph lol got me back into two wheels, had loads when I was younger , great bike like your paint work
Once your up to speed next year do the IAM training and you will hopefully get a series out of that, either lamb chop rides or teapotone did this previously
Nice bike reminds me of my old rd 350 ,get a few miles on her during winter and you will be sharp in the summer ,take it steady bud that’s a quick bike for a first one ..👍
Late, but that's the idea apparently old school looks and mentalness I had a Stan Steves prody tune on a LC350 I had, it was fast, it stuck on full throttle one day and I smashed into a parked car lol smashed me up to still got the plate in my arm, knees just about had it great fun
What a nice colour that is, not the normal colours you see around. See a few comments about scrubbing tyres with sandpaper that's a few people that have said that now 😂 don't know if it works or not but with these cold and wet roads now it may help.. What are these like for size as I'm 6ft2" and 18 stone and don't want to look small on one. Got a test ride next week on one 😁
Nice, now your channel is going to have vids of you out and about on your motorcycle, great stuff. We just need Andy to stop playing with his CB radios, man-TFU and get himself a motorcycle as well. ;)
@@DudeStuff I thought he might come up with an idea like that...lol Don't fall for his evil plan where he's safe in his car while you'd be risking life and limb. PS..... on a serious note, if you're parking your motorcycle in your front garden you'll need to bolt a ground anchor into the concrete drive or wall so you can attach a thick m/c chain to, ... and buy yourself a decent wheel disc alarm, maybe even fit an alarm inside the bike as well. Luckily for me i'm able to park my motorcycle in my back garden out of sight from thieves, it's still all locked and alarmed up though, i'm in Basildon not far from you and there's plenty of bike thieves all over the place so I don't take chances.
I think I've already been counter leaning for years from doing a little motocross. I'm just avoiding leaning at all until the new tyres are broken in and I'm comfortable and the bike and weather conditions.
Didn't your manual say to keep it under a certain rpm for the first 500 miles? They normally say that to wear the clutch in, and for any metal shavings in the engine to come out during the first service without screwing the engine.
Yes she does i think the bandit was one of the first naked bikes on the scene (naked/streetfighter style) that started this trend of bikes from the manufacturers, I love them because they look aggressive but are more comfortable to ride in a slightly upright position, awesome bikes i loved my mates red bandit was super cool
Just looked at lings for that bike model, they have an 18 plate (4yo) going for £7449 with 4 previous owners. New ones start at £9k, so they keep their value very well. Too well IMO.
Yeah I think they do hold before pretty well. Dealers do charge a bit more but u got free delivery (45 mins away) Pair of brand new tyres and datatag all set up and installed before delivery. Wouldn't of got those bits private. Noticed an indicator badly condensated and they're gonna replace that too so not bad getting all that help
@@DudeStuff Doesn't matter what you wear, "your a soft object". A back protector is not a bad idea. Mistake I've seen many times over the years cheaping out on jackets, trousers boots gloves. Buy quality abrasion resistant products. Defensive riding, high awareness and experience is what will keep all your limbs attached. Sorry to butt into your comment OP, it's hard not to love the thrill of a high power motorcycle.
I may well do something with them soon but right now riding this thing is so consuming i don't even notice the decals much 😂 just trying to stay alive haha
