She has finally arrived.
Very late, and very dirty.
The moment I took her for a ride all the issues surrounding the delivery immediately disappeared. Only problem now is that I'm still waiting for all the paperwork to arrive, and thus the bike is unregistered and not exactly road legal.
Eventually opted not to have the exhaust modification done, when Buell Johannesburg informed me that although they have sorted the 12's out quite nicely they are still playing a little with the 9's. That being said the stock exhaust is a lot beefier and louder than I remember it, maybe it's been helped along a little for 2007.
Also my headlight grill seemed to have gone missing in action somewhere during the trek down to Cape Town, or it was never fitted in the first place. For a long moment I thought they had sent me a 12 and I was just going to keep quiet about it.
Initially I wasn't too crazy for the "cut" stickers on the tank, but in due time they have grown on me and now it looks quite funky. Also the aluminium airbox trim I ordered with the bike makes it look stunning.
I love the fact that the bike looks completely different in daytime, having a nice charcoal or graphite look to it, and then at night it goes completely black. Very radical look, and definitely the most badass naked around for miles!
