Well, the Divvy has gone to the shop for good and someone's going to be able to pick up a "project" to work on cheaply enough soon whilst I wazz it about on the new ZZR.

Ho Ho Ho... Twisted Evil

It's a silver 02 plate with 13k on it and the pics I have are the are the ones from the Mission website. (below).

The Divvy got 800 all in in the end but not too bothered about that. Mrs K. is getting the tax at lunchtime so will be out for a blat along the H3 and down the A5 after work... Smile. Apparently though the Divvys are not selling at the moment (what's new?) and the S style gets a few hundred quid more than the N.

Good choice of bike!
I had a great time on mine. If your using it in winter keep on top of the cleaning as the build quality isn't too hot. Especially make sure that you look after the calipers.

Have fun!!!

Took it up to Leeds-Bradford at the weekend with Mrs. K on the back. It chomped it's way through the motorway miles with no issues bar the really gusty wind on the way back that chucked us around quite a lot. It did about 150miles to the tank (though saying the fuel guage is pants is an understatement Smile ) and once the weather calmed down a bit it touched 115 with both of us on at one point...

My Brother in law (who's been riding for 20 years) was desperate for a go and got it over 120 at one point, mostly on the back wheel Twisted Evil . I had the pleasure of riding his Speed triple (limited edition L reg 855 cc torque monster - 24k on it and up for sale if anyone is interested) and watched him dissapear off into the distance. he's not used to having a fairing and is now looking around for a new VFR after realising how fast he can go with aerodynamics. Twisted Evil

The only downside was the wind on the M1 but we pulled off at the transmitters and headed down the A5 instead which was much better. I just need to chuck the thing around a bit more (it feels stupidly light at 195kg dry) and boost my cornering confidence. We both hit a rise on a Yorkshire country road at 70 though, "You too will believe a speed triple can fly... " Twisted Evil

All in all? Effin' lovin' it... Smile

K.
