How do Empty How do

Post  t-catChris Thu May 12 2011, 19:07


Hi all,

Please don't laugh but i am currently in the process of getting my licence, and every write up i've seen said the Thundercat is a brilliant "first big bike"

So i've got one - yesterday i purchased a 97 Cat in Silver & Yellow - It is 99% perfect. And an absolute bargain!

And from the reciepts and paper trail it has been well looked after by all owners and no expense spared!

I can't wait now to actually get on and ride it - but i have to resort to my CG125 for now to practice. :-(

Looks like a great forum for new bikers - let alone Thundercat Owners!

Cheers

Chris

Good luck with the test.

Nice one. Cool


Remember to wear a pair of binoculars the first time you let it rip on a straight road with no junctions.

Yep, well done on passing. Now it's time to enjoy the 'cat Very Happy

Take time to get to know her and your abilities. Learn from your mistakes and, if possible, join on of the rideouts and come watch us all make mistakes. Everyone does it!. Shocked

Hope you have a great season.
