You've more chance of meeting me over there Brew, and yes, sometimes bigger is better
I've just had a 750 bored to 836 by a mate in Boston, hoping to have it race ready for the AMA drag bike finals at Valdosta in November.
If you do get over for the TT, you'll have to fly onto the mainland to get there. I'm just 20 minutes from Manchester airport and about 45mins from Liverpool, you can fly to the Island from both these airports.
