Talking Hello from Hampshire, UK

Hi everyone,

New to the site etc, so will lurk a little and find out whats going on

Just started riding a 900 legend TT ( If I can stop it from overheating) ; but been riding a 1978 TR7RV for the last 22 years, ( Bless it!)

Profile should make everything clear, so speak to y'all soon.

Cheers

Bob

Allin all its a little shy of a quarter of a million miles, most were done in the first 10 years when I used it as everyday transport, but its been 'round most of Europe.
I've only split the cases on two occasions,at around 80,000 and 140,000, once through holing a piston ( my fault... timed the L on "Lucas" rather than the timing mark!), and the other because a gear race had broken down, though it has had new barrels and pistons .

I have great hopes for the Legend!

Where to get Highway Pegs though?

Cheers,
Bob
