    Delivered @ 12, got a Free Tank Pad :)

    3 miles on the clock and a empty fuel tank..lol..guessing they only put a glass full in to do the PRE delivery checks.

    Looking good...needs a tail tidy urgently...

    What do these do? Should both sides not be identical?

    Great feeling isn't it!

    I still get all funny when I open the garage door and see my shiny 65 Panigale sitting there.

    Depends on the threads inside, sometimes can be different

    You can always check by winding in or out and making a note of the turns to stop

    Very nice indeed, if you have a 21 year old son keep him away from it for the next two miles on the clock, when my 2012 repsol was on the drive just like yours is in the pic but with 4 miles on the clock, my son sat on it and dropped it, ouch, don't beat my record,

    Enjoy

    Bummer mate - read your other post. Hope it gets sorted properly for you this time.

    Well if you decide you're of the school of thrashing as soon as the engine's warm, I have a pretty '15 repsol with the first 2000 miles done for you already. Happy to swap!
    :D

    Looks great! Congratulations. The new tail is so wide. I will be getting a 08 tail painting white to suit the design and keep the original sleek tail. Its the only thing I think they got wrong with the 12-15 shape.
