Hello, thanks a lot for your help, seems it wasn't as hard as I thought bars are great and mot is booked for Tuesday

Why???? The money you waste on this shit, get yourself a full licence, then build a real chop/rat/cafe

Can't wait to see your handle bar videos in different countries

Given a choice, thunderstorms are not my idea of a leisurely ride!!

welcome bakes I say just ride it as it, its a cool looking bike, I would be suprised if you didn't want a bigger bike after passing your test, as for the use you will get out of it, when the bug really get you those miles will start to mount up and you will probably find you will use it more than you think. Save your dosh for now and when you get that bigger bike I'm sure the guys here will give you plenty of help so you will be able to do some of the work youself, then you will be able to afford white walls etc. As DT said that would look great on a 1100 or above. Dreams about customising a bike are not boring and you are not foolish, Respect to anyone who turns a stock bike into their own.

Yep if your girly about gear changes then it will drop out (as above) change gear like you mean it not like your afraid of it. Once you get it right you will feel/know the difference. People treat their bikes like cars and they are not the same, with bikes you have to tell it who is boss!
