    Welcome Paul,

    I too have a TT (red/silver) it's a lovely bike, and I can't get over how good the brakes and suspension are. Mines going in to hospital tomorrow for new tyres, and a re-map. It suffers from the "switch" like power "roll-on roll-off in 1st/2nd gear which the local main dealer says they can iron out - we'll see. Let's hope so, becuase it's very diffiecult to ride smoothly as it is, but once you're past that point it's a fabulous bike.

    Mine wasn't use much before I bought it, and has a number of ignored factory recalls against it, so it likely that the mapping is as it left the factory.

    Perhaps we'll meet up on day, but I hope you enjoy your TT as much as I do mine.

    Best wishes/takecare.

    Des.

    Hi, welcome, good choice, I have two tt's though only one is currently roadworthy. If u like I have an early model, and a later one that I bought with a blown engine,knacked forks and brakes and missing screws, bolts, grommets all over the place, i rebuilt and it is back on the road were it belongs. I have the factory workshop Manuel covering. These and the speed four, so if u need any info, is settings etc, I'll be glad to help, enjoy your. New purchase.

    Hi and welcome to the forum.

    The TT's are a great bike and the last Hinckley bike that were all made in the UK.

    Cheers

    Steve
