Title: MR TiGGer is in da house !!!!
Post by: MR TiGGer on October 02, 2008, 22:46:12

Hi blokes and gals tis Tigger here from GB Bikers and NorthWest Bikers

Dumped the CBR600 in favour of the big litre Vee, and went quicker through corners on day one in Wales, scrapping the pegs on day two, what's not to love about this bike.
A slight cheat was discovered after buying it. Spoke to the original owner who happens to be a friend of Mike Armitage of BIKE magazine and had a Vee for long term test, who advised dropping the yolk 15mm and winding the rear preload up to maximum, and it's a scratching bike in the twisties in Brumstums back yard!! And no weaving at 80+ with the GT kit clipped on.

So if you play in North Wales let me know, out playing most Saturdays, and I'm hoping there's a few left this year.

That's me :neen:

Grrr:-) Alex

Why thank you all, and I couldn't halp myself with the threads, felt like I had some catching up to do. Especially after over 8 thousand miles since March 25th this year on the mighty Vee. No more sportsbike for this cat, and Two cyclinders is clearly the right number for a motorcycle
