New Trixter moving over from a VTR

Post by chris1100R »

Only in my first week of ownership.
A Cup Replica, always fancied one, always been a big Mamola fan so why not.
It's different, but different is good :D

Welcome in, Chris :D

Whereabouts are you from? There is still one weekend event (Hawes) in the year - if you are interested.

Don't forget to post some pics of your bike, and who knows - it may have belonged to one of the regulars on here, in the past.

Al :)
If I am ever on life support - Unplug me......
Then plug me back in..........

See if that works .....

A better looking bike would be hard to find IMHO, welcome to the forum.


Sorry for the thread hijack

Don't think so this year Dave, we gave it good consideration but with the upcoming Yorkshire weekend, work commitments and a trip to Le Mans I didn't think there would be enough decent weather left to organise a meeting :(
Phil.

R1200S and loving it !

First week with the BCR under my belt. Getting used to the quirks of the machine, enjoying it. Can't help but think it sounds like an old flymo compared with my old VTR. Easily rectified going by all the useful info published by you guys on this forum.

Thanks

Odd feeling isn't it? Not had mine long either, I sometimes feel like I've started all over again!
