Hi & welcome, post up some pics of the new cat. Take care when you get it as the roads are cold & slippery at the moment.

Welcome to the forum Gedcat, hope you enjoy it here

You'll not regret the delay in getting a cat.

We don't have any group rides planned Hampshire way, perhaps you could rustle one up and invite peeps to join you
Checkout "Something for the Weekend" to see what's on already this coming season. Maybe you'd like to jump in on one of those . . . you'll be very welcome.

cheers

Wrap up warm out there

Welcome to the forum

Hi and welcome, lets hope the weather holds for you on Sunday so you can take your 'cat for a ride.

Hi & Welcome.

Congratulations and well done on a great buy.
Best colour scheme too!
Break her ( and you ) in gently.
Treat her with lots of respect.......well to begin with at least.

We've a few big(ish) organised (well in advance) runs which attract a national and international attendance but ad-hoc local meets are posted here the week or night before too.

Cheers
Rosco

thanks for the reply's, finally got rid of my bandit 600sy, good bike initially but bored of her very quickly , im hoping the cat will live up to its reputation,

Hi,

You'll love the cat. I had mine for a year next week and every time I ride him its great.

Just like today, just into work but the refreshing blast of +70mph ish cold air on your face in a morning certainly gets the heart beating. (and the bacon sarnies cold!)

When I get in the office they all look at me as though I'm stoopid!

I suppose its a biker thing.

haha, wont have that prob a work, most of us bikers anyway, its the car drivers that are stoopid, i let you know how i get on and will put some pics on soon

Welcome. Had my T Cat 11 years now and still love it!

ok picked up my cat today instead, roads alittle wet but nothing to bad, and brand new front tyre so had to take it easy, so once one love the riding position, what i have now got used to is keeping the rev's above 6k to get the most out of it, once used to this absolutly love it , i love the pull it has and will easily do 100 in 3rd, does need a good clean though but the sun will be out tommorow so out comes the cleaner, cant wait for the summer trip to silverstone for the gp in june, will put pics on this weekend,

happy riding

Nice one glad the first impressions of the are good. Will look out for the pics.
