I guess you've ridden it, or one similar?
If so, what's the 1200cc lump like?, I guess the engines in the Thruxton R's are similar to the 1200 Scrambler!

Sorry to hear that, fingers crossed for either it’s safe return or a decent payout

Bought this last year, 2005 unregistered with 14 miles on it.



My main bike, KTM 990 Adventure, 2 of my pals sneaking about too

Some of you might recall my ‘Zagato’ cafe racer but now here’s a poster to with it.





I’ll be there all three days so if you are going, and unlike the NEC or Excel shows, it is a great family day out, pop over and say ‘Hi’

An old colleague of mine had handlebar footage from their Gixer1000 going over the mountain at 189mph. He went every year, and that was a pretty tricked up bike. He told me a story from one year that his mate pulled out to overtake a car, he then went to overtake both his mate and the car, when another bike came from the opposite direction! They threaded it between the two bikes!!! Baffles the mind.

"Tales of derring-do" contribute greatly to the pleasure of biking. The art is to exaggerate whilst remaining believable
