For my little brother anyway  :lol:

Sol, my brother finally decided to get one after seeing me having a blast on the Tiger. He wanted something "not that freakin huge" though, which only makes sense given that it's his first non scooter.

So, after looking around a bit, i took him to an old friend who runs the local Yamaha dealership and lo and behold...he fell in love.

Ladies and jellyspoons, the newest addition to the family:

Did you get to ride it yet?  And maybe you should go with him to the barber next time he goes. :P
From parts unknown.

We picked it up yesterday. I took it round the block when we got home. It's a cool bike. I think he'll enjoy it for a long time.

It also has ABS, which as a relatively new rider he wanted and i'm sure will come in handy at some point soon.

It's so light compared to my Tiger that i started laughing.

And leave my freakin hair alone.

Downtown Lefkosia (Nicosia to you limey gits  :lol: ), Cyprus.

Why, is it all Greek to you?  :lol:

Nah, but I'm not familiar with the area.  I know Akrotiri / Limmasol up to Episkopi and over to Platres quite well, and have been over to Dekalia a coupe of times, but not the Nickosia area - for obvious reasons  :lol:

Makes sense. I was just up in the Platres last week. Ran the Tiger a bit, had some coffee...it's a small place we have but you can't beat the lifestyle. :D

Stop it.....  I love Cyprus - the people, the climate, everything - but if I ever get to visit again, it'll be at my own expense  :cry:  I'm trying to persuade my wife to holiday there but she's not very enthusiastic; I'll have to keep working on it.
