The TT isn't a perfect bike though...it vibrates like hell. During the 900 km/ 14 hour day I put in on it, I lost the feeling in my throttle hand for several days afterwards. The seat is narrow and another seat or Airhawk is a must in my opinion. The headlight ain't worth crap...might as well carry a candle lantern on a stick. I'm changing my whole front fairing to a LED set up.
The lack of a battery can be a pain, when wiring up GPS, charger or other electrics. The alternator puts out 185 watts, so consider that too.
In reality the TT cruises best at 110 km/h (speedo speed) but will easily hit 130 during passes.

Ahh, that brings back memories!
Sounds like you have yours sorted - I never did because I never quite gelled with the bike and then I went abroad to work so it was sold (no point in such a machine sitting around doing nothing for long periods).
It seemed to me that there was a bigger following for the TTR600 in Germany compared with the UK.
(I got a large second hand tank from German ebay, years ago)
