Nice one!
If you're on a budget a TA is a top choice. Is it a 600 or 650..? Look forward to pics..!

Hi Laura, as Patrick said I got one!
I bought it a few months ago after my BMw F650Gs disintegrated. Love the handling. Incredibly easy to ride, very forgiving and so much more peps than my beemer! I will be using it to travel around Europe at Spring and summer. Planning to do a loop from London to St Petersbourgh and back in Sept. Little 3 weeks blast. So far it has been a very pleasant bike. I looked at the weestrom at the time but thought it was too ugly (sorry I do not mean to offend owners!) and too bulky/heavy. The Kwak feels very light. I would not do off-road with it (at least not bumpy ) as the exhaust is not in a good position and I do not plan to fit a bash plate. It was a far too tall for me but I bought a lowering kit from a company in the US and also got the seat scooped out by a company I use for my bikes regularly (cheaper that the Kwak low seat and more comfortable). SO all in all I am very pelased wit h it and it seem so far very reliable. Start any time even if I leave it for few weeks and try to start in the cold. So I'm a happy owner! I will fit soft panniers and maybe some sort of crash bars or protectors to protect the paint. I do tend to drop my bikes !Ooops! Let us know what you get! Cheers, Maria
