Hi all, I am new to this forum and looking at buying a new commander after trashing my hyabusa, I lived, yeeehaa !!. Any way, any feedback would be greatly appreciated, I guess I am interested in comments from current owners...ie problems experienced..reliability etc etc.. Really would appreciate any feed back I can get before I lash out Cheers all Ronny
Hi Ronny! If you haven't already say a hello in newbies section too. I had a thunderbird As a loaner from jack lilleys and found it an absolute joy to ride, strange coming from a Thruxton rider but true, handling and power were great. Reliability issues will have to come from an owner I'm afraid.
cheers guys....just test rode one...bloody awesome....have been looking on web all week for bad comments from reviews cant find any but nothing beats talking to an owner..... thanks again fellas....
Hi Ronny, welcome in and good luck with your new Commander - yes I know you haven't bought one yet but you're gonna int ya?
I have a '12 TB1600 and it's a joy to ride. Very heavy (dressed is 800lbs) but weight seems to disappear with motion. No major problems at all. Keep the coolant hoses snugged down. You'll use up the Metzeler tires in less than 6000 miles, but there's plenty of longer lasting ones out there as replacements. I don't think you'll regret that buy.
thanks bob.....really appreciate your feedback...99% chance I will make a deal next Friday....hopefully all goes well cheers cobber
