Hi,

The new Raptor arrived late last eveining, no time to ride it properly, but spent some time fiddling with it today. Here are some "before" and "after" pictures. More posts and pictures follow describing the actual changes.

Side view - First thing - remove the decals on the side panels. These came of bit-by-bit like a security sticker, took 20 minutes!

Left handlebar controls - note the choke is on the lever, same as recent Suzuki's I am told. Nice quality switchgear.

UK numberplates are huge, so I had one made that is 1" smaller (8' x 6" rather than the proper 9" x 7"). It also fits nicely on the mount and is the same width as the rear fender, so has better lines.

Picture after the topbox has been installed - see separate post.
