Went and had a look round the new Trumpet dealers thats just opened near me today.

Was in the car (out "visiting" with Mrs Tricky) so didn't test ride anything.

Like the look of the new Tiger and want a Speed Triple even more having had a good look and a sit on one.
Was a little dissapointed that the 675 Daytona is one of the most uncorfortable bikes I've ever sat on

Carlos knows that I dropped the bike yesterday. I locked up the back, low speed - cold tyres, cold road. I'm OK apart from a sore left thumb where the bar spun round and whacked the knuckle against the tank. Bike? - cosmetic damage only but I need a few new offside panels and a nosecone. Have found most of what I need on fleabay and a salvage yard. Pride very dented however and will take a bit longer to repair

Shame mate glad your OK Cold tyres--been there--so so easy to spin up the back wheel or have a slip on the front. Still you seem to be getting it sorted out--just a pain when it happens
