Went for a ride yesterday, and after having the bike about 6 months and not seeing a single other Girly on the road, I saw about 5 or 6 yesterday. Varying colours...

If any of you are on here, I was on a silver Girly with a big screen riding two-up. And nodding energetically to fellow tiger riders! lol.

Although I live near Matlock, I wasn't amongst the pride of tigers that you spotted on your travels. I was hoping to get out on mine that day but had too many other things to do, mostly involving "jobs around the house" (zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz).
If you are out and about this way again, we'll have to keep an eye out for each other and i'll get the tea's in when we do cross paths. I'm also on a silver Girly, which is of course the very fastest colour, with a big PP screen.  :)

Tried contacting you through the page about LED's but couldn't get a message page to open. I've recently replaced most of my idiot lights and speedo/revcounter/clock bulbs with LED's, with excellent results. Try http://www.triumph-online.co.uk/. I 've done a fair bit of business with him and he's reliable ++++ and his prices aren't bad either. You can get the same bulbs off flea bay but any come back may be difficult if you get some duff ones.

You might want to have a look at Paul Goffs site for LEDS as well. He goes to most of the big autojumbles.
