My xr sport has arrived at the dealer... Closeup non esa pics.

Should be ready to pick up tomorrow, and I am a very happy camper...  Pleased to say she is equipped with the daytime running light, pirellii Rosso tyres and all the usual sport extras... No handguards though, so apologies to the guy I told it had them... Dealer is doing them for me for £80.... The rear shock has a handy dial to adjust the preload if her indoors is coming with me... Some nice handrails on the back and also I specced the sat nav cradle on her too... Of course she has the black forks too which look ace in person

Never had anything new before and my last bike was a 12 year old fireblade so this is a really big deal to me...

I am not gonna go too far on her until first service, we know what them glue bags in the factory are like, they are prone to forgetting to tighten things up... pity you are on the maiunland, we could have run them in aat the same time, its gonna kill me not being able to give her the beans

Great bike to have as your first "new" bike!!!  Congrats!!

Very Nice the simplicity of the sport must be great but too used to the toys to stop now but I have no doubt you will be enjoying the alone time you have with the new addition.

Ride Safe.
