Hi chaps..Been reading the threads on here more and more recently.
Had to Sell my last bike (2001 R1) year 1/2 ago now due to a dodgy back, but bought a TVR to help reduce the misery.
I love race reps, but they didn't help the back situation.
I passed my test in '88 and have owned over 28 machines from NS125F, RD350, ZXR750H2 to RGV250P, Ducati 916(still miss)and all those in between etc etc.
Anyway..brings back all the nice memories/smells reading your threads.
And if i have to jump on board the 4 cylinder versus V twin debate..well V twin all the way for me now. (hence TVR i guess). Keep it real
I'LL BE BACK

Have you never thought about getting a bike with a more upright riding position ?

I find the sports type bikes are just too small/cramped and uncomfortable to ride any distance.

I've recently bought a Blackbird and compared to my Triumph Tiger (which is as comfy as anything I've ever ridden including an ST1300 Pan)it's
not that comfortable at all. Yet it's meant to be one of the most comfortable sports (or touring) bikes you can buy.

Don't believe the hype......

Wayne, make your return on the Multistrada. You know it makes sense!!!!

Get some Termi's fitted and have the bugger chipped and you will soon be smiling. Just like the rest of us when May hits the calendar.
