Haven't been to the bike meet there but always stop for a drink and bite to eat. Been around the waterfall there and its awesome. I do about a 150mls ride all around the resorvoirs. So many fantastic quiet roads around there. Mountain road to Aberystwyth is one of my favorites.

Thing is Rob England has some great places to go aswell and i have been to all of them. However its just to busy. Same with North Wales. Thats why i like that area as its so peaceful and you can get away from people.

Is it just me or does the exhaust look like they put it on after they designed the bike. Just looks in the wrong place to me. Do really like the bike though. Stupid tall though.

^ is that the sump plug sticking out of the plate below the water pump? ...
I'm guessing that is one of the skid plate mounting bolts. There are 3 other ones visible in the picture. Nice looking bike, maybe we'll see the Raid edition in the U.S. by 2023.

I think you're likely correct. BUT, why would they recess the two bolts that are up & out of the way. . . . and leave the two most likely catch on something exposed?

Why would they make a factory skid plate that bolts to the oil sump on our S10s? Why doesn't the T7 have tubeless tires?...All good questions. The skid plate pictured is probably a prototype.

The factory S10 skid plates were always more decoration than function,, this thing is intended to be a bit more robust i think & yet i'd hate to drag that across a log...
