After initially considering a Triumph Scrambler 1200, the heat from the high exhaust is leg melting and nullified any idea of buying one.
An underslung pipe with kicked up silencer option would surely help sales.

Re: Warning light issue and recovery/warranty bigger issue.
All back home and cosy.
Good 95 mile run back, with a bacon roll at Newlands Corner on the way.
Bike was lovely but I’m still unsure what to do about the screen. I filled the intercom gaps in my helmet with foam and it did improve things a bit but it’s still not quite right.

I told them not to rush or try and squeeze it in their existing bookings.

Re: Warning light issue and recovery/warranty bigger issue.
All sorted. ‘Anti knock sensor fault’ warning cleared and didn’t reappear during the two 20 mile rides I said they could do to bring the milage up to the minimum for the first service.
Pick it up Tuesday, weather permitting.

Re: Satnav vs Mounted Phone

Re: SWM is back in UK
The boss of Trago points out that they offer 'cheap mobility' to a wide range of customers in predominantly rural areas without some of the 'baggage' that comes with conventional motorcycle dealers. Good move...from my time 'in the trade' I know that an attractively priced offer of bike, basic kit ...
