A certain other Wichitoppo finally got some new tires for his bike, so we went and broke them in.
We rode around town for a couple hours and, realizing both bikes needed a bath, went and hosed them off.
The top picture was after said bath. Note that the blue stuff for protecting the whitewalls during shipping got scrubbed off.

It really is. My only complaint is how touchy the throttle-by-wire is in first gear, but I’ve gotten used to it.
