I got my bike in June 2005, Jane and I went with our good friend Jim to
have a look, Thanks Jim, we went for a ride for a few minutes and were
instantly hooked.
The immense power was very obvious, although it didn't
run too well, we thought it had been standing, so this must be it.
The ride
home was glorious, at 70 mph we just seemed to glide along, this is what it is
all about. I got home, about 120 miles, and used a full tank of petrol, 4.5
gallons, blimey, I knew then something was wrong, and after a few tries and
fitting a Hypercharger, and then a few more tries, I have managed to sort the
beast out.
We now average over 60 mpg, and the engine is as sweet as a
nut.
Since we got our bike, many changes have been made. One of the most
important being the Mustang seat, what a difference.
The hypercharger looks
good, but does it really do anything? I am not sure.
The single most
important change I have made to my bike, is the Addition of a handlebar mounted
speedo. This alone transforms the riding experience so much, it is a different
bike. Get one, you will not be disappointed.
On the first weekend we picked
up our Wildstar, we did over 400 miles, we have since toured the Wrong way
round, England, Wales, Ireland, Northern & Scotland, 1500 miles in 10
days.
Numerous rallys, and our 'Piece De Resistance',
our trip to Corfu. This was a really magnificent experience, 3 weeks riding
through Europe, some of the best scenery, the sun shone, great people, more fun
than we could ever have hoped for.
We have been so lucky to have made the trip.
And the
bike? never missed a beat, there for us every time we called, safe, reliable
powerful, and damn good looking too!
