Cheers guys, it's got it's problems, but it's a nice bike for a starter :)

I've been to teign tyres before with my car, i point blank refuse to let them touch any of my vehicles again. I need to find a good garage anyway, so i'll order a tyre from blackcircles and get it fitted by them instead :)

What about your local bike shop? In these crap economic times we should be supporting our local bike dealers, they're having a hard enough time what with the youth preferring cars to bikes and the internet doing 'too good to be true' online deals? I have very little spare cash so have to be really careful how I spend it, but sometimes its better to pay a little extra for what you get in service/ immediate collection etc.

Just a thought! ;) .................

.........oh and if your local dealer has a really shit reputation, then go find one who doesn't and support them instead :D !
