I've put the tail and original pipes(supplied with the bike) back on for registration.

It's now all legal, so they'll come off again, and I've got plans for some custom paint, or maybe I'll wrap it. - trouble is that Jaffa colour scheme is really starting to grow on me!
The changing of the guard.

getting a bit squeezy in the shed. 3 bikes on full rego, one on historic plates. Next year the "cafe" is eligble for historic rego, and the Copper runs out in October. The DBUSA plate will then be transferred to the gen2.

I prefer to think of it as "Putting it out to stud"

Looks very noice Wardy
(with exception of that red tape on the wheels
). Are you coming to Normanville to try it out now as well?
Gone to the dark side......now where is that "BOO" button?!? lol
Nah, truly happy for ya mate, it's something all of us die-hard gen1 lovers will [eventually] end up doing....sooner or later!!!
You've got a very nice and interestingly diverse collection going there, dude!!
Ah Wardy, I didn't think you would ever retire the old girl. The new Jaffa does look good thou
congratulations
Wardy, Glad you saw the light at last.................Enjoy!

Wont make Normanville, unfortunately stuck here 'till end of Nov.
The rimtape was on the bike when I got it. I've now removed the "suzuki" decals off front and back, but actually don't mind the rimtape. We've all got different tastes. next will be the braided lines. Not sure if I'll go for rearsets or just change pegs and paint ankle guards.
Great Choice mate,
If we dont get to see you at Eastern Creek this year, we will be there on Feb.. 2014 WSB.
good one wardy i,m sure you,ll like the gen 2 just as much as the gold one if not more
