Mine was out for the first time in 8 months last weekend. ( Don,t really count tough.... [whistle]) she was on the bike trailer being picked up from repair shop. Once again waiting for Sato rearsets, i think it was this time last year i had the long wait with E-Moto for the rearsets. Luckily my insurance will replace them like for like, but unfortunately my dealer didn,t know of E-Moto,s terrible delivery schedule when they ordered with them. They were going to cancel the order but they are the only U.K based importer. I brought the bike home with the intention of fitting my standard rearsets till they arrive (mid - March, so E-Moto reckon`) but had forgotten that you use your standard Olive joints when you fit the linkage, which are now of course sat in a box full of twisted parts waiting to go to my insurance company.

I've been out a couple of time this year, yesterday to get her serviced, took her to Bridge in Exeter and managed to blag a ride on the demonstrator they have for sale down there, got to say, the 08 is blindingly quick......

Both rides I've manged to warm the tyres sufficiently to get me knee down......yippee.
