Congrats Nick!!
Looks like you have an ABS model. Rare here in the US for the ‘13 model.

I wondered about the seat; doesn't the stock seat have "HONDA" across the back?
Also has heated grips, which I'll probably remove; this isn't going to be an all-weather tourer (have F900XR for that).

Think was standard in UK.
Any advice on how to get those downpipes super-shiny?
