     HI,
   New here collecting my GTR1400 at end of the month,after 11 years of Blackbirds fancied a change,its 07 model ,black.
Any tips and advice gratefully received.
    Just hope the weather is kind to me on collection day! Brum to Fareham.

So....collected the new GTR today from Cradley Kawasaki,dealers very good service,I fact an absolute pleasure to do business with.The 230 mile round trip was worth it.
  Credit to the previous owner for some good useful mods,it's has been well cared for.
The MRA screen is ok but I did receive a bit of turbulence,when it's warmer I will faff about with lip angle....two double entendres in one message!!
    Again ,thanks to the welcome on the forum.
           All the best.

Hiya, I reflect everything said above, welcome. If you come back from Brum via Gloucestershire and need a break or a cuppa p.m. me and we'll sort it. But whatever, enjoy this brilliant bike.
