I figured a possible new bike, but the mention of zip ties threw me off...

Congratulations on the new whip...

Looks like a First Edition R18... My favorite for custom bobbed projects..

she is an FE. I haven't any firm plans for modding as yet. She hasn't had her first service either. 2022 with 540 miles on the clock!

2022 FE?? Do check if it is indeed MY ´22 as there are some minor differences. Look at the reverse gear lever p.e. The shorter is up to MY ´22.
Also check where the OBD2 port is; left or right.
Makes no real difference. Just so you know the generation.

If it has cruise control would be nice to know if it has a steering damper. A bit of a curious one that.

But most importantly GRATULIERE!!! and enjoy!

yes the obd port is on the left. From what I can find out from the seller, it is a 21 model that sat around for a while, hence 22 plate, low mileage and excellent condition. Whatever way you look at it, and many already have, she is definitely a smile bringer and head turner

Simply a great buy!
Yours is a ´second´ serie first edition my ´21. Not sure if second series is a correct denomination as it is simply a change (or change) during the FE production run.

Yes it sure is an attention magnet.

Imo no need to do much maintenance. Oil change at most. The biggest ´issue´ may be that the tyres will need some distance to get properly round again. So... RIDE IT and enjoy!
