Quote from: njee20 on July 14, 2025, 11:28:52 AMWent to watch the TT 10 years ago. Super accessible and a fun (long) day out, but my god, I don't know how they fit on the bikes with balls that big.

Now you know why they call it the 'tuck' position ;)

Greygreaser

1958-1964 went- Raleigh moped, Triumph Terrier (150cc), James Captain, Matchless G3LS. Probably maxed at about 80mph.

Then cars and vans until 2004 when i returned to bikes- Suzukis 600 GSX-F, THEN 2 750 GSX-F one I took to Mallory for a track day and got round Gerard's at 90, 1250 GSX-F and now Aprilia 750 Shiver.
From about 2006 joined IAM and after passing test became an 'observer' until I moved house in 2019 - hence the more 'protected' seats to make observing easier. No one ever out-ran the 1250, had torque to match a race car! Managed 125 with ease.
A jack of all trades is a master of none, but often times better than a master of one.
