T L 1000 Shook me like a wet spaniel, both feet off the pegs and didn’t stop till I’d grown a brown tale.
Thanked me mate for the go on it then rode strait home and got changed.

Take a look at this, the clip with the Euro Sport emblem in the corner. If I remember right this was a TL can't remember who was riding it, but my mate was on the island right by it, think it was 99?

You're right about the '99 bit SP, but it was Paul Orrit at Bray Hill on a Blade. It's on the Duke Video

Yep thats a oick off a RRW or RRX Blade, same as Weeksys old one that we took to the TT in 2002, where Adrian finished 29th on it in the Production 1000 race, we just goes to show what happens if you get the set up right if you get it wrong then it can do what the bike in the video did. Strangely enough this also applies to the TL1000S. Only bad tank slapper I had in my years of TL ownership was when I was on Senna3s VTR1000 and landed it from a wheelie at around the ton now that was scarey gave me alot more confidence in my TL.
