    Hi

    I'm a new Thruxton R rider & having got the bike just 2 weeks ago..promptly trapped nerves in my back! I'm on the mend though & hope to be out running the bike in, around the Peaks tomorrow. If any of you are from the Hinckley/Leicester/Nuneaton area & fancy a ride out, just drop me a line.

    All the best,

    Gary

    Hello Gary and welcome to the forum :)

    Hopefully you don’t have a reoccurrence of your back problem when you start riding again.

    Hi. I'll be sure to post a pic or 2 later tomorrow. I'm riding with my brother on his beautiful 595. Have heard of the Yondermann, but will have to drop by soon. I normally call in at Smithys at Monyash & then drop by Monsal Head & Litton. Great riding country! Ride safe my friend..

    Welcome to the family. Great bike you will love it. Now Considering that back of yours you know I can pop along and ride it for the weekend for you. You know you need to get some miles on there. Don't forget the pictures to quieten the inmates here so nursey can administer the meds.
    Ride Safe & Enjoy.
    Joe.

    You're a lucky man to have that on your doorstep. I'll watch out for that jacket...I'm guessing it's not Hi-Viz!

    GazzaD.
    As a Brother just worried about that back of yours. Sure I can find some others on here to take over just in case I get tire. Promise I won't rev it to much on you. On here the lunatics rule the house. Me I just a little nutty. Nursey gives me extra meds. Especially if I volunteer to ride someone else's pride and joy.
    Regards
    Joe.
