Just bought an Innova

Post by raybarber » Tue Feb 14, 2017 2:41 pm

After many years on 4 wheels, I have just put a deposit on an 11 plate Innova. It's done 1700 miles and well maintained. I paid £1295 form our local motorbike shop. It's complete with top box and windscreen, which I would have purchased. So although the price might be a bit high, the extra bits probably make it a reasonable deal.

I can't wait to get out on it. :)

and after 20 miles you wont be able to get off the bloody thing quick enough, ,, I don't like them for one reason the seat its like a plank of wood rest of the bike is great good mph not bad top speed easy to maintain cheap to own but that seat in my mind lets a good machine down

"if" the seat proves troublesome have a look at the Airhawk seat cushion.
Everybody is a different shape though. So with any luck it will be OK.
Good to have you here.

BTW why not pop your location on your profile so local help is possible :)

Took possession today and went for a short ride. The weather was beautiful so it was just my leather jacket and a scarf. My top half was nice and cosy behind the screen. Legs a bit chilly. Great fun though. I'm going to have to pop back to the shop because the Honda topbox doesn't close properly. Hopefully, it's not broken.

Ha ha. Luckily, I found this before embarrassing myself at the shop. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kHPwUBszCys
