Hello all, and especially Ash as it's your thread really!
I'm in exactly the same boat - first go on anything like this was on my pcx for my CBT. Issues with right turns just the same and also the queuing! (are you sure you're not my alter-ego?!)
I've done my 3-mile commute (sorry everyone... the Island really is that small!) mainly in the wet for the last two weeks. Would love some summer weather please!
Have a stock seal grey, but thinking of some add ons once finances have recovered!

Hi Barljo
Well I'm glad to say my right turns have gotten a lot better. They're right in saying it gets easier with practice. Just make sure your focus on your destination around the corner and not the immediate piece of road in front Of you.
I've been doing my 16 mile round trip commute for about 2 weeks now and gosh I love it. The journey time is shorter and it's much more fun than sitting on the tube for an hour. I'm still hoping for a dry day as I've not yet managed to take the waterproof lining off my jacket.
All in all I'm liking this bike lark. Not sure why I didn't do this sooner tbh.

Haha- you're right Lou. That's still the reading from my guesstimate reading when I picked up. Only filled up once, so it should even up when I do!
Definitely getting more - the last 55Miles have taken place on two pips of the fuel gauge. Woop!
