    Hi,

    Thought I would introduce myself, I'm based around the Newbury/Swindon area and have had my 675 since last Saturday. Really the Caspian Blue was the only one for me! my best mate has a Black '09 so I wanted something different and loved the Blue when I saw it at the bike show in November! That said the Black with the gold wheels looks amazing.

    I am having the first service done at Swindon on Saturday and having the arrow exhaust fitted and remapped, so I will post some pics of it when it is on there, I am hoping it will sound brilliant as the exhaust isn't a cheap upgrade! Other than that the bike will stay fairing standard, probably just official carbon bits and maybe some Triumph Pazzo levers.

    Thanks, speak to you all soon.

    Welcome Phill! I'd be interested to see what you think of the new exhaust, I've been considering it too. I often pass through Newbury, I'll keep an eye out for a blue 675 :)
     
  5. Welcome to the forum dude! Sorry to say but carbon fibre 675's are the fastest :)

    Thanks for the welcome peeps!

    I will post some pics of the Arrow exhaust. My friend has the older style Arrow pipe on his 675 which I have ridden lots (hense why I ended up getting one) and it just sounds superb, quite raspy but with lots of burbling and popping on the over run and seems to make the bike run better even with standard mapping (that bit mayjust be in my head but felt less jerky on and off throttle).

    Carbon fibre makes it faster? umm.... not so sure about that... Does anyone else really want the carbon surround for the exhaust (the shield bit) but think that £150 is a complete rip off? anyone know where to get one cheaper? It would just match in with the Arrow really nicely!

    Yeah, D41's a right PIA and has no taste. He even has fluffy dice in his truck :eek:

    Welcome :D

    Hi, Just because I had a 748 like 3 years ago, and just kept my name the same on each forum so I remembered it!

    I think we need a 'Caspian Blue' register, as I have been wondering how popular they really are? (I'm betting there already is one?)

    :smileup: Welcome on board mate - Someone had to buy the blue one :lol: Only joking, its a great colour, see it every time I go in my dealers and wonder what could have been if that was around when I bought mine, it would have been a tough choice to decide which one I got ;)
