I have been looking for a while & seen a couple but I'm very fussy & it has to be immaculate.
The bike in question is Italian & quite rare, I've only ever seen 2 out on the road.
The cat won't be going anywhere though, it's as well as rather than instead of.

Re: Leyburn - Friday 23rd Sept 2016
Tornado tre 900 in green & silver. Ideally 2005 onwards as the early ones had clutch problems as well as other small issues.
Now I know they aint renowned for reliability but they look amazing & I really want one.
I have the ultra reliable cat to use while regularly repairing the benelli.

Re: Leyburn - Friday 23rd Sept 2016
Another attendee, John Armitage is joining us. He lives in Cheltenham and is staying with us for the 2 nights, I'm sure quite a few of you know him, he has been on quite a few of our runs. He used to run a couple of BMs but currently runs a Kwak and a Triumph explorer. Chicken Tim has suggested that seeing as quite a few attendees are coming a fair distance it would be a good idea to have a run out on the Friday afternoon, perhaps to Whitby and or Scarborough or similar. Agreements or other suggestions please post up. Is Cheltenham not too far from you Tel, might be a plan to ride up together, just a thought. Tim and Christian have now decided to stay for the 2 nights, I think they were worried about missing out on a piss up. Sept. seems a long way away but will soon come round. Any more for anymore, there is still room at the Golden Lion. Come on the more the merrier.

'T'is about 120 miles south of me Tez, and depends on his route of choice heading up whether he would want to hook up for the journey north. But yeah, I'd appreciate the company on the ride in0ldcat wrote:Do you mean me Âterry lees wrote:

On an off topic . . . How goes yer Herr/Frau Beamer ? How are you getting along with it ? . . .
Had a wee problem with mine just recently
They loaned me an R1200R courtesy bike for the weekend. Same engine as ours, geared slightly differently, has "normal" front forks and is of course completely naked. Great fun in the backwoods, bloody horrible on motorways and over long distances
Re: Leyburn - Friday 23rd Sept 2016
Sorry to hear of your BM problems, there was a recall on mine for a revised clutch master cylinder, but other than that its been trouble free. Must say I'm really enjoying it, done 7,500 miles on it so far. its as economical as the CBR returning almost 60mpg. Back to S&T John was of the opinion that to make such a long journey worthwhile he would want 2 days rideouts, which is why we are considering riding out to the east coast on the Friday afternoon. If you or anyone else fancy this (it would obviously mean leaving fairly early) please post up, and I'll give you Johns tel. no. and arrangements. Chicken Tim, Christian, Bob & Pete, and myself are up for it
Cheers the noo Terry

Ah I see.
I'll run the concept passed the grown-up trouser wearer. This will necessitate an amendment to the leave application form and quite possibly a pocket-money augmentation

That's brilliant Davie, haven't seen you since last year. Nearer the time let me know your eta, and as long as its not too late I'll come up and have a pint with you. Presume you booked a single, if any more put their name forward would you mind sharing if it became necessary?

Re: Leyburn - Friday 23rd Sept 2016
Terry, I've booked a room Thursday-Sun. It's single occupancy double, so if there is a shortage of accommodation we can look at sharing.
Friday morning I'll probably pootle up to Richmond and pop into Alt-Berg, be free in the afternoon for the ride-out
