OKay so I picked up the tranny today.

First impression... Its a road bike with off road capabilities. Suspension is very hard , even with 120kg on it it shakes my kidneys.

Theres enough power , the 650 mill purrs along and does 140kph @ 6000Rpm in top. Steering is very direct and like i said .. feels like a road bike with crappy tires.

Its fitted standard with metzeler tourance tires, and im keen to see how it holds up.

My girlfriend and I are going to head out to grotto and see if there is any terrain we can go explore.

More to follow.
