100 ltres ? Eek..... it's bad enought paying to fill the Tiger tank. As my Tiger is at Woods for the 12000 mile srevice I decided to put my Tbird back on the road today. I laid it up for the winter in October as winter riding is not good for the alloy parts. So I reinstalled the battery and put 2 gallons of fresh fuel in. Turned the engine over without choke to circulate oil and then with a whiff of choke she started up first time. Went for a 50 mile bimble , managed to avoid the showers and came home with a big grin ! Every time I ride my Tbird it reminds me that it's a fun ride,it's surely the most charasmatic bike Hinckley made (although the S3 is also grin inducing but for different reasons). It confirms my view that I will never sell it. As the wife says - you spend more time with that bike than you do with me. To which I replied yes - I love this bike ! (only joking,honest).
