Iom TT

Hi All
Here is a picture of two girls Gwen and Fran who rode both Dax`s around this years Isle of Man mountain TT course in really bad weather at an average speed of 21.75mph for the 37miles . The white Dax was running very slow it was found later it has had a piston from a 12v model fitted after a new head had been fitted due to an engine blow up , It is now in the process of getting a full engine rebuild and both will be back in 2014 to have an other trip round the course and a third Dax might be joining them,

That's pretty cool
I'd love to do that, was it during the TT week?

Yes it was the weather was terrible it was thick fog and very wet going over mountain I was behind on my Suzuki 1250 Bandit with my hazard lights on ,The white Dax was very slow doing 15mph up the steep climbs the yellow one was a lot quicker I later found out that the white one it had a piston from a 12v fitted , I am in the process of fitting the correct piston ,The girls never gave up and completed a full lap a picture was sent to the Ride mag to put in the owners section , Both Dax`s are owned by the girl on the left and she has a third Dax back home that will be over in 2014
