Any sightings yet?

Haha! I am hoping to find a clean and cheap way to do it. On the ZX-10R, it was just a matter of taking off 4 bolts and re-arranging some of the hardware into a license plate bracket. You lost the license plate light in the process, but eh, who cares. I never got hassled for it. I don't even think turn signals and mirrors are required in this state.

Hey, isn't it about "going your own way"? BTW, Be careful with the sawzall!

For what it's worth, I really like riding a DS on the road. They are perfect for urban combat and eat up twisty back roads! I had a DR650 for about a year and a half and put 18,000 miles on it before I cased it on a big rock and drove a mounting bolt for the skid plate through the sump. I then got a DRZ400 and put 6,000 miles on it. Last year, I went to Peru and rode all over the country on an old XR600. Comfortable ergos, good ride, nimble handling. They may well be the most versatile motorcycle that you can own. I suspect that I will love this new 630 and may have to have one!

Checked out one at my local dealer last week as it was being prepped in the back. Now I have to figure out a way to fanagle a ride The bike looks really good, much better than the pictures on the interwebz.

I'm sitting here without a bike, waiting for my 630. The wait is driving me insane.

I wonder if that seat is actually usable?

I hope so!

What doesn't kill you will make you stronger... Actually, I would be going crazy too! I hope that once you get it the weather is nice and you can enjoy it. Otherwise you'll be sitting on it in the garage making vroom vroom sounds.

Eventually I may get a SM setup for mine. I figure for now, I'd rather ride the dirt model on the street than the street model in the dirt.

That's what I hear, and a big part of why I went with the TE vs the SM.

Will the 630 have the same service intervals as the 610?

I have no idea. I assume it'll be similar.

This may be a viable option

Not too shabby! Is that just a chopped up stock fender? It's hard to tell from my phone.

Complete Edge II LED tail light assembly from Sicass racing.
On my bike I only used the light itself, so if you want just the plate bracket, let me know & it's yours

Ahhhh so far so good. Keep the reports coming guys, this looks and sounds like the goods.

Awesome, thanks! I'll let you know.

Any idea if the stock lighting will bolt up to that thing? Does the whole stock assembly just bolt to the subframe?

How about some maintenance intervals from the TE630 owners manual from those that have the bike at their dealership?
