I was hoping too, left work at 3pm Friday and ended up sitting in the aftermath of an accident on the M62 so had to cancel the collection as I'd only got as far as Bradford in an hour. Got over there this morning but had to get in the queue for my bike lol.
Jefferies is actually a decent dealer and everyone i spoke to this morning only had good things to say.
I will definitely be on the next run out.

So glad our license plates aren't that large and LOUD!
Nice looking bike otherwise.

Lovely looking bike - enjoy. Mine's last year's 'almost black' - ebony. Love it, but prefer the carbon black.
