well here she is ...
i decided to take it easy with three hours of daylight
so after 4.5 miles of running in :side:
common sense prevailed ..take it easy
so i then chucked it up and down a pretty tough trail ...which compares to some the lake toughest climbs and decents ...stupid really B)
i just trusted the bike ..its like riding a bed of feathers (thumbs) when i got down i decided it was more stupid to go up ..so i did
verdict
she is brilliant ..love it love it love it ..i knew she would be ..a bit more gas on the top rock steps required..but give me a bit of time to adjust id only done 7 miles :silly: :laugh:
its essential to save the wilderbeast from tasks beyond the call of duty
ccm have got a huge amount right with this bike for a duel sport rider ....im a very happy boy today and wont offer a swap to anyone
happy day B) B)
ccm gp 450 happy day

Cool...............get in
Clutch cable looks tight, why don't they run the clutch and throttle cables in front of the handlebar clamps, like most other dirt bikes instead of behind
Looks weird :silly:

Great one Minky. You have had the patience of a saint. Hope it's a marriage made in heaven.
Look forward to helping you introduce her to the lanes. I assume its a 'her' :laugh: , will be interesting what nick name you give her
