I'm one who disagrees with most of you about the new tank and badge. I love it! I also like all the changes already mentioned. In fact it's all the changes that helped to persuade me to change my T100 for the BA I've got on order. I guess beauty is in the eye of the beholder folks.
I've just been cleaning up my Bonnie ready to hand it in and one thing that I won't miss is the rust that's already started on the cheap chrome wheel rims. This bike's only ten months old for pity sake and I've kept the rims waxed and avoid riding in rain, as I don't enjoy it. That's not too say I've not been caught out in the odd downpour, but I've always dried the bike off before putting it away in the garage. I love the look of spoked wheels, but if that's the best they can do they can poke the spokes.
I appreciate the ali wheels do need a lot of care, but you can always bring ali back if you don't let things go too far.
I've had no problems with all the other chrome work on the bike, but the wheels are pants.
Just my two penny worth.
cheers mates
John
