My new GoPro came in the mail, so I will be doing an un boxing video as well as many other videos for the TT250 for those that are waiting some more visuals. Once I get my bike, I'll keep you all posted.

That is kinda cool how they come backwards to actually suck your finger into the chain and sprocket, instead of deflect it. I just checked the CSC site for TT pics and many are backwards.
Nice catch indeed.

Looks like it may be necessary for more training for the CSC assembly crew.
It appears that at lot of oversights are making their way through the final assembly and inspection cycle prior to shipment! Some could turn out endangering the new owners!

Well, I've been riding for 48 years and have yet to have my finger sucked into a chain, so I'm sure it's nothing to "call out the guards" on. ;-)
In all honesty, the guys at CSC are rolling through these bikes as quickly as possible and they seem to be doing a bang-up job getting them out. I'm sure something is bound to get missed, especially on the first go-round.

I agree 100% with you. I'm glad they're moving through quickly, and the shark fin thing is way down on my list of priorities. I am glad to know which way it ought to go though, since some of the roads I ride have a lot of tumbleweed, sagebrush, and thistle that I'd rather got deflected from my chain.

I am less worried about the CSC guys, I AM wondering how this stuff is making it out of Zong! ? I mean, c'mon, they've GOT to have turned out several hundred thousand of these D
P bikes over the years...

Yeah, sure enough. I'm sure Joe will want to get that changed so it doesn't grab brush and stuff off the ground and sweep it up into the chain.

Maybe Joey uses it for brush clearing?

I'm used to seeing them on the disk brake side also to protect the disk from rocks etc.
