Looking for the member that sold the turn signal headlight mount and side maker lights. I need to get a new Union Jack cover.

I have to admit that at my age now and dodgy wrists, to go touring I would struggle without cruise control and that to me is the only thing that lets the 850 down. I test rode one just for a giggle and it is a lovely thing. A while ago I tried the Yamaha Tracer 900GT  and it was the most uncomfortable bike I ever rode. The seat rammed me into the tank so hard that I got cramp from trying to push myself back. I got off adjusted the seat height etc and just rode back to the dealer. I also found it "buzzy" and nothing like the plush 3 cylinder of the Tiger 800. Just goes to show everyone is so different and you have to test ride the actual bike you are thinking of.

And in Gran Canaria they don’t use the inside lane of a roundabout at all for some reason, even to go fully around and back from where you came from, they will go all the way around the outside 🤔

Consumerism disguised as progress 🤣 Most of us get dragged into it too easily. I was given a Honda NC750X as a loan bike from my insurers after an accident, and I’ve really taken to it. Despite the journo’s / forums all saying it’s slow, overtakes need planning etc, in reality it’s still quicker to accelerate than most cars, the under seat fuel tank makes the bike feel lighter than it is, the tank storage area is really useful, and it does an easy 80mpg! The suspension is a bit crude, but then again I was looking at suspension upgrades for the Tiger!

Hi and welcome to the forum.
