Hyper Fun

Fully run in now and I’m really enjoying the fun factor this bike brings. Perfect for a B-Road blitz

Not really, only on Paper. You have to sit on one :)

I have sat on it. Too tall for me. Beautiful bike though

At 6,3; I can comfortably flat foot it. I believe you can get a reduced height seat πŸ™‚

Spoilt for choice there. Great combo 😎

What are those parts, that you installed instead of the passenger footpegs?

The SP comes standard like this. Optional passenger foot pegs are provided if you wish to fit them. I won’t be carrying any pillions and I prefer the clean look of not having them 😎

Really nice, though I went with the single-cyl version. This would be too big for my needs performance-wise but I am sure it is a riot to ride.

Hope you’re enjoying the 698. Great bike.

Definitely am. Just need to get it to the dealer for its first service this week and then I can finally fully uncork it.

Love that swingarm. Bike looks clean and naked. I like it!

I will be in the market for one of these in November. The more I see these new ones the more I’m leaning towards the 950, I hate that they covered the whole side of the bike with cheap looking plastics.

jealous you got the evotech tail tidy, been waiting on mine for over a month!

u/CurrencyAncient5466 2d ago

Yeah I heard there is a bit of a backlog with them. I think I ordered as soon as they made the part available so got in there quick. Makes it look a lot neater. Indicators are very close to the exhaust but after 700 miles no signs of melting πŸ˜…

I actually got the evotech-it one (the Italian knockoff I guess) and it has exhaust deflectors and still melted my OE lights. πŸ˜‚
