weeksy
Well,
After a bit of a wait the Husky finally arrived on my doorstep. Cracking bloke i dealt with and was very honest and straight with me.
"battery is knackered and doens't hold charge, so i've bought you a new one"
Also gave me a brand new Airoh helmet that i was debating buying last week LOL. Never worn and in the correct size. Gloss back and looks superb.
Onto the 510. Well, it's put together beautifully. THe brackets and components are really nicely made. It's a VERY basic bike, nothing on there really apart from what's needed to go forward and stop etc.
Doesn't come with a key, which is a minor pain in the backside from a security perspective when i go out, but waiting for my Auto alarm guy to come back to me with ideas on an immobiliser for that. It does have a steering lock, but fook knows how that works.
THe bike has both elecetric and kick start, decomp lever on the bars, manual choke, hot start lever and fuel tap, not had one of them in a while i can tell you.
The bike has less than 800 miles on the clocks and it shows. Not a mark on it. The off-road wheels have 0 miles on them, obviously they're immaculate.
Starting bike is simple enough with a bit of choke and electric start, out on the road and it's exceptionally light and flickable, the brakes work well (even though the Enduro caliper not the 510SMR Brembo P4 caliper). Power, well it picks up the front a little in 2nd, just by opening the throttle, seems to run out of grunt about 95mph but that's plenty fast. Needs an exhaust really to unleash it fully. The weight of 108kg makes the bike feel quite flightly and effortless to throw round the lanes (only a 6 mile test ride by the way).
The offroad wheels will be going on tomorrow, very simple job even compared to the 510SMR as it only has 1 nut for each spindle and almost a MTB quick release on the other side.
I'd like a rev counter, will look into that and get one sorted.
This ones a keeper
