Title: Hello all
Post by: GlenWatt on January 17, 2005, 09:13:46 PM
Finally got myself another Tigger.



A few years ago I had one of the 1st of the new shape in bright yellow.



Now I've managed to get hold of another one for a cracking price at a local BMW dealers. Got it cheap as it looked like it hadn't been cleaned much in the last year, so after 4 hours of effort and she came up looking Greeeeeat.



It's a year old Tigger with only 2.5K on the clock and all the usual extras which I was pleased to see are now standard which when compared to my old Tigger saves a packet.



Looking forward to some friendly banter and good biking tips.



P.S.



Love the new Orange colour.



Glen

Welcome mate. That bike looks nice and spanky. You won't be sorry you came back to us! Whereabouts are you?

Welcome Glen. Without wishing to start the old colour war yes they do look good in orange. As Brock asked where are you situated.

Thanks guys, I'm based in Bexley, Kent.



I see colour is as good a hot topic for conversation here as it is on most other sites.  :)

That Tony the Tiger Orange is my favorite.  I had a choice of roulette green when I bought mine, so thats my second favorite.

....and you need a race can , Glen. That'll make it go 'Grrrrrreat', instead of 'Greeeeeat'! ..........You said you wanted banter!

Exhaust on order, should have it by the weekend.  :D



Opps, Grrrrrrreat would be better.



Hi ya Al, going to the Agro ? We'll have to park right in front of the hotel.



Wasn't quite cheap enough to be the ex Ride one, but still a bloody good deal.



See you at the Oakdene.



Anyone want to buy my old Varadero ?
