Great job spicy, loved watching the journey you went on to get your pride & joy to be a thing of envy for us all! Worth the all the effort & your lockdown time was well spent. Being a triumph 675 rider I’m looking forward to your views on the speed twin & thruxton, they’re tempting me
Would you ever consider wrapping the bike/ changing the look? Or would you rather keep the blue and white look? I saw another motorlovgger recently hand wrap his mt09 for a little project and it looked amazing
I passed my CBT yesterday! I'm struggling to decide what to do now though. I'm tempted to get a 125cc quite cheap in my area for half a year or maybe a year or whether to go straight for a DAS course.. I need a lot of practice to get good. I still struggle with u-turns and getting in correct positions and staying in momentum. What would you recommend I do?
Get instruction do the DAS if over 25 if not try and go for.your test on the 5-7 day course as the amount of pre test tuition is amazing for confidence and buy a winter hack thats capable of 70.
Depends on the condition of the bike and your skills. Filming maybe doubles or triples the time but also most people can not do 5+ hrs a day on it 5 days a week.
@@spicy110 hmm yeah I bought the DRZ just for greenlaning, so probably I shouldn't even think about cleaning it up. All that rust is annoying me though. However I think it's best to enjoy it and just repair (and clean) what breaks. I have already spent 400 pounds servicing the suspensions, I guess it's enough :P
@@spicy110 I dropped the bike on my CBT, and was charged for a new lever protection bar. So the CBT insurance does not always cover damaged parts. Might be worth asking the school before hand. I was obviously covered for (as you say) legal issues. Anyways... I passed and now tootle around on my Lexmoto Michigan.
