Not tv… Youtube.
With the extra cold weather in Lisbon, and the low time availability to deeply try Daisy 2.0 out, it assume this is kind of slow. I have already run it to the limit. it is fast… the Ton-up is now a breeze, as the body position is much more aerodinamic. But this has some costs… […]
Just did it without thinking much of it… That riding position will take some time to get used to. But it is a dream come true, the completion of the project. Now, adaptation phase for me, to the clipons and the rearsets… She really looks lovely these pictures do not make it justice… but it […]
Yup… after those two days, I got to the limit of my knowledge. Carb tuning, rearset adjusting, that is it. No more. Handed it out to Tiago from Unik Edition to give the final overhaul and overall maintenance. :) will be ready in a week!

I also never had (close) contact with motorcycles, except that time a friend of mine took me to a 1 km ride on […]
