So finally got around to picking up my first bike, it's an 09 Daytona 675. Wanted one since I saw the black and gold edition back in 2008 but always talked myself out of it. Put about 400 miles on it in the 3 days I've owned it so far and loving every minute.
Read so many posts on why this isn't a good bike for new riders but I've been taking it careful and getting used to it with every mile. I'll post some pics later as I'm about to go ride around the island, it's a nice day out.
So I'll just update this thread instead of making a new one. Had the bike for 2 months now logged 2500 miles. Bike was down for 3 weeks waiting for parts. Since picking the bike up I've flushed the coolant, brake fluid flush, oil change, changed the chain. Added hi/low hid's, tech spec tank pads, carbon fiber rear cowl, carbon rear mudguard, carbon fairing inlays, carbon heel guards. Got flushmount signals coming, my integrated taillight is here waiting for installation
No, something got on it. I've tried washing it off, polishing it off. Using a back to black product. Whatever it is it just stays streaky. It's really annoying honestly
Went for an around the trip island ride and stopped off at tantalus road, which is where the drifters and sport bikes go cause it's one of the twisty roads we have out here. Plus the lookouts have some good views
