Hi all,
Just bought my 2nd ever Tickford, a Narooma Blue AU3 XR8. 220kw (claimed), handles like its on rails, and 600k's to a tank on a run. Leather interior adds a bit of class, other than that she's a stocker.
Gonna keep this one! Last of the Tickfords, may become a bit of a collectors item in years to come, well I'd like to think so!
My first run in the XR after I picked it up Wednesday was the very next day from Ashfield up the Great Western Hwy to Bathurst. Did some laps of Mount Panorama then back to Sydney via Bells Line of Road. What a great way to get aquainted with my new baby.
Also have a Suzuki Bandit 1200 for wheelies and leaning over in corners when I get the urge heheheh
You'll generally find me hunting on the Old Pacific Hwy north of Sydney. Taking the XR up there to the Road Warriors Cafe tomorrow, show a few of my two wheeled mates that sometimes, just sometimes, 4 wheels can be as much fun as 2!
