Aw, thank you!
I was always planning on doing a drivetrain overhaul once I found a buyer. Everything else was ready to go; I wanted him to have the best experience possible - because you never forget your first ride on a new bike!
Best thing was being surprised as hell at how well the photo of him riding the bike came out (excepting the fact it was shot from the non-drive side, of course). Only took 6 photos in total and 4 came out pretty well, but this was the best of the lot and you're absolutely right: it conveys the emotion of the moment perfectly.
