    Welcome to the forum Ian, love the old tiger, first blade I ever rode back in 1996, scared me to death.

    M&P sell pattern front indicators for about £30 a pair .

    Thanks for the info on the indicators. I've ridden lots of bikes, the fastest I've been with through the timing traps at magny cours at 186.2mph on my ducati CORSA. But when I had my blackbird (the most powerful road bike I've owned) I just commuted on it. I bought the bike on a few pictures so I've not seen it in the flesh but reading some posts here I think it will scare the **** out of me. I've just turned 48 apparently I'm having a mid life crisis!! I can't pick the bike up for a few weeks so hopefully I will be at least sort of prepared for it!!

    Thanks to everyone for the warm welcome. I'm looking forward to riding it, but reading some of the posts I'd love an SP, they sound amazing, if I sold the kids the other half and maybe the cat..............

    Hi All
    Just an update, I've still not picked the bike up, always working however I have got a friend to agree to pick it up for me next Saturday (17th) so hopefully in a few days after that I should be on the road. However I'm still trying to find indicators for the front fairing.......fleabay do not have complete items and from honda it's about £160!!!! Does anyone know if RRS, RRT or RRV items would fit? Finally I've notice a small piece of fairing damage in some pictures sent to me, nothing major but I would like to replace the off side centre section of the main fairing, from the internet about £300, I've seen lots on ebay from china anyone had any experience or a suggestion? Thanks in advance
