Letchworth is just down the A505 from me - your side of Cambridge here.

I'm running mine in still - I decided to do the MCN run-in on this to see how it goes (http://s11.postimg.org/b4r4thgwz/Page_1_Running_In.jpg), still on the sub 100miles baby stage with some Fuchs/Silkolene API-SJ mineral oil I found for V-twins at 20w50 weight. No idea if we need 50sae in the UK but as it's summer I thought I'd use it and maybe switch to a 40 in the winter unless I see a good reason not to.

Currently on an average of 73mpg and after 50 miles it says I have 280 miles until empty.
At 200kg it's a bit lardy for pushing around and a little slow steering at low speed but doing well on the ride. Slightly irritating that two warning lamps are unused yet we only have a single almost central indicator lamp, I guess I'll learn to ignore it.

Also getting used to it never being locked unless the steering lock is on.

I also did the fusebox mod - covering up the base of the fusebox so it doesn't get water on all the vital contacts.
I got the Givi screen too, absolutely perfect and transforms the bike.

PM me if you fancy popping in to say hello!
