So the seat will take a while to sort out, a gel pad will be used in the mean time.
The screen issue was confirmed today by taking it off & having a short ride, no turbulence ! It's now been modified to a more rakish angle, so will test ride again & see if it helped.
The resonance will have to wait & see.
Jet washed the dirt from the lanes off today too.

Very cool. I think if they up it to a V-X-400 after the Ninja 400 release it may have to be considered for my next "all arounder" bike.
