It started first go.
I let it run and got the temp up to normal operating and the thermo fan kicked in.
Everything seems to be working fine.
I have not road tested it yet, it seems to rev freely parked up though.
It was blowing blue smoke but i dont think that was coming from the motor because after i turned it off it was still smoking from the exshaust so i am assuming a gasket or some sealant is just cooking off.
so er um yeah just the fairings to go..........
Gday Con, It is normal for a new exhaust and gaskets to smoke a bit as it cooks of the oils and crap from handling and corrosion protection etc.
Cant wait to hear how she goes!
