Who's not ridden their TRX for a long while and missing it?

I only had mine on the road a week. Passed my test, went to the TT, crashed it 2 days in, and it's still in bits.

I think I've forgotten how to ride! Doesn't look like I'll get out on it again this year either

Who's been without theirs the longest? June'06, beat that anyone?

I'm just worried I'll never have any confindence to ride it again. I never felt happy with the way it handled in the first place, I always thought something didn't feel quite right, so I've changed the entire bike apart from the engine, gearbox and wiring loom! I think I might have covered all the bases.

August 2005, but I'm refurbishing it at the moment since I took voluntary redundancy.

The problem with changing so much is you won't know what sorts it.

But anyway it should be good.

I had 10 days off from riding a week ago and rode like a jerk first time out. Mind you I did take my Tuono out for that first time out and it was the first time I had ridden that in about 6 weeks. And it ain't as easy a ride as the TRX.

Hello,....... my name is Glenn and its been 3 hours and 46 minutes since I've had a ride.
It's really great to be here amongst other supportive people with the "disease".

You should see the one I use on another board...

As for riding the Rex, been a few weeks. But it's being off the track for 10 months that's killing me!

Been about 2 weeks now - getting serious withdrawal symptoms - and like Dee says, it's been such good weather

I last rode my TRX about an hour ago.

I shall be riding again in just over 7 hours time.

Nice bike, shame about the roads.
