Doesn't your bike have one? It was the first thing I added to mine....
Ride it like you think owning it matters.

Yea its actually missing the screen. I need to buy one. it runs great I rode it around my neighborhood today. The seat has tape on it too. Other than that is a all good.

My msf class is schedualed for the 10th of june. I cant wait to get my the endorsement. and learn proper technique.

Just a question i noticed that you can shift without using the clutch is this bad or comon practice? I did not bargan with the guy. he was real nice he drove it to my house (about 30 miles) so i payed 1150.

Sadly, no. I opted for the ashtray instead...

Ash tray? Mine came with that... you just flip back a little round door in the bodywork maybe 30cm ahead of the seat..... there's even a key lock on it so you can keep other bozos from using it while the bike is parked.
