Hi all
Just bought a 2014 Worldcrosser (though its a 2014 plate its a Gen 1 as its the old style clocks)
Its actually my second S10 as I bought one a few years ago but staright after having had 3 ZZR1400's and it was too much of a power come down at that time so didn't really appreciate it.
However ... always knew I would give it anther go so when I saw this one with only 6000 miles I swapped my Africa Twin DCT and glad I did ... just feels right.
I have put a set of Givi Alaska panniers on and a Bumot Defender top box ... look good and really useful ... everything else is standard apart for an Arrow system that was on it.
I love everything about it, did a 400 mile day yesterday and it was great ... I will try a re-map though as that yo-yo'ing on slow riding and throttle snatch is annoying ... how could Yamaha make such a gem and then get that soooooo wrong?
Anyway ... great forum!20210322_154336.jpg

In Worcester mate ... I actually got the bike from JTS at Swansea ... my son and my grandkids live in Caerphilly and yesterday I ended up on Aberystwyth prom in the sun but then realised I probably should not have been there!!! ... I was out and about near Kington and before I knew it I had drifted :cool: so ... bit of a Wales lover (except when its footy or 6 nations) LOL

How weird is that ... spoke to him yesterday about booking it in! ... he did my last ZZR14 and it used to smoke the back tyre. I will be doing it mate, hopefully make that awful snatching and low speed po - go stuff smooth out maybe?

Welcome from Texas. I'm guessing it's a perspective thing. . . . 'cuz, I love the throttle. When I saw the "46" stickers. . . . I figured Rob (Bimota) had already got to the bike. :D
