    Photos of McVicars new bike

    At last ! Picked her up today. Easy once I'd made up my mind what I wanted.
    60 kgs lighter than the Mighty Varadero Although I was sorry to see the old girl go.

    What a gorgeous colour, Steve!

    S'beautifull, and very 1970's, and I'm sure you won't ever have a SMIDSY 'till it gets grubby!

    Very nice. I saw one of those in the flesh last week. With the rear shock the way it is, the back looks quite funky without the panniers.

    Colour is officially "Candy Burnt Orange" It has a very comfy seat and riding position. Handles like a dream although I am running it in at 4k revs (56mph) for the first 500 miles.
    Only another 460 miles then I can move up to 6k revs for the next 500 miles.
    Got to fit the hugger, extenda fenda and KTM handguards at the weekend.
