Hi,
Just joined the forum after having browsed it once or twice since becoming a V twin convert last June ( 09 Tuono R in blue)
Been riding bikes since I was 16,( eek 30 yrs) passed my test on a Suzuki X7 just after my 17th birthday. since then had the usual range of spotty faced hooligan machinery RD 250 / 350 LC's, had a brief attempt at proddy racing LC's before turning to numerous sports 600's etc brief ownership of a CBR 1100 ( European trip), and a long period doing green laning on enduro bikes. ( trying to preserve my licence / liberty.)
Having had enough of hurting myself falling off enduro bikes ( through my own incompetence entirely) I Thought I had matured sufficiently to buy a litre road bike and bought the T on a whim, I had a ride on a Mille, loved it but am too mature (old and battered) for head down bum up discomfort.
The T is without doubt the best bike I have ever owned, just can't wipe the silly grin from my ageing mug after every ride, I am officially a born again hooligan!
Now just browsing the range of goodies and upgrades.......

PS - great forum, I already got some great advice to sort the one little niggle I be had so far, and the banter is particularly entertaining.
