Hi everyone.

First post, and nothing to share at the moment as my bike is still sitting in Japan waiting for a container back to the UK.

I've read some really informative information on the forum - My own technical knowledge on bikes is not great and certainly not 2 strokes (it'll be my first one since 1987 Laughing )

Forgot to say, the bike is black and if the clocks are correct (?) has only done 1100km's and is still on the original tyres ! - it's coming from a reputable dealer (RMD Motors) so hopefully no suprises.

Hi James, and Welcome. Very Happy

Thanks for taking the time to introduce yourself. This forum is pretty quiet these days, and without people like you posting interesting content it will die.

There's a few people on here with SDR experience (which is probably how you found us) so hopefully they can help.

Keep the updates coming, and thanks for joining us.

Cheers, Admin. Cheers

Thanks for the welcome.

I can't comit to posting 'interesting content' Laughing but will share what I can when my bike arrives.

In the meantime, here's a link to the bike - not a lot to see as it should be standard.

PS. I'll have to work out why I can't display images as I thought the first address above would work?

Bike still in Japan and not likely to be shipped until the end of February, then another 2 months(?) to get to the UK and forward road transfer - this gives me far too much time to wait so thought I'd buy an original Workshop manual to at least see what I'm getting.

JDM bike so the manual is in the native language - anyone good at Japanese Laughing
