Congrats on the purchase, like the red color. Not my favorite bike aesthetically but the red helps for sure.

I love the way these look. They look even better with the rear sets removed.

There are some very cool features to this bike. Gas tanks are in the frame, oil tank is in the swing arm, front brake set up etc etc. There are also some quirky downfalls lol. Either way this thing is a rip to ride 😃

Get a black or at least clear windscreen.
Other than that, sweet!
Is it your first?

The windscreen is the one thing that I want to change for now. I have ridden a bit but yes this is my first personal bike.
