The NSR was finally delivered last night Very Happy

After years of wanting to ride, i'm finally there!

I was off to a bad start last night after I dropped it off the side stand Mad

but there's only a few scuffs and I'm sure there's many more to come!

Took it out this morning and felt so confident...I understand why everyone raves about it for a first bike.

I opened it up a little in third while the road was silent, and it sounded and felt terrific. Mr. Green

My only challenge now is to negotiate the roads up to sutton coldfield where my GF lives, not far from Bassetts Pole.

Must remember...Lifesavers! Thumbs Up

Nice one fuzz! Just out of interest how much was your insurance and how old are you?

I'm 24

Insurance is £396 TPFT with £400 excess. I asked Danny for help as I'd been quoted £650 by Bennetts.

Great one!. I had my NSR delivered on Friday. Went round Portsmouth and stopped at the top of a hill. Boy, did I feel like I was on the top of the world! The acceleration is good, please DO remember lifesavers, even with L plates, some car drivers don't remember that they were learners once. I had a car cut me up on a lesson and my instructor stopped him and reported it to the police!

My insurance was £303 Fully comp £300 Excess, on CBT and was from Hastings Insurance (I am 33 though. This must have quite a lot of influence.)

Happy and safe riding everyone! Thumbs Up
