I've got a red M1000Sie it had its first outing yesterday after its winter slumber bit of a flat battery but I hooked it up to a spare battery and it coughed into life immediately, had a nice local ride and all feels good service and a belt change pending and then roll on summer.

Odd that as most everything else has a blue tinge.. the colour is bleeding out

And another shameless M1000 pic, one is an ancient mode of transport - and the other is a Viking longboat...
