tubthumper 0 Posted November 25, 2011 Just got back from Bristol after buying my new TL! And what a revelation!So much torque, yet so predictable and smooth! Those who say that these are unrideable should try riding my old Bandit - it's a massive improvement!!And apart from the customary back-ache, the TL even though more bunched up than my Bandit, is more comfortable over long distances - result!Well anyways im feeling great so though i'd let everyone know Josh Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BanditMike 0 Posted December 1, 2011 Glad you're enjoying the bike Just out of curiosity, you say the riding position is more cramped than the Bandit, but easier to ride over long distance? Given I may be selling the B12 next year I was looking at possibly getting a TL. Don't know how tall you are, but I'm 6'2" so do you think it would be comfortable for me?
