Featured What you been doing with your TRIUMPH today??

Confused...is the bike's name Tracey or the wifes?

 

I that the 390? Pro's and con's?

 

Thought I'd pop over to Woburn Triumph and use the pressure washer to remove some of Scotland after my recent trip. Half way through and the heavens opened three hours earlier than forecast. Ah well, next week maybe..

 

Where did you get to then RB? I hope you don't get thistles growing on your prize possession

 

The Transformers look doesn't really do it for me. I'm sure it rides well though as KTM do have a good rep for it.

Check out my posts in Rideouts. Cracking, if damp, trip.

Edit: Ah, just seen that you did, lol.

 

My god, that's FUGLY!!!

Good job we all have our own likes and dislikes.

 

I did the mud burst petworth whiteways route today, very nice!

 

Went out for a blip then fuelled washed and put away.

 

Yesterday, went over to Rutland Water on my Bonnie with NickH on his Street Scrambler and figwold on his Street Cup. P!$$!ng down for the first hour or so after breakfast, but dried to sunny-ish after lunch. We stopped to warm up over for a cuppa at Cafe Nero in Oakham mid-morning where I was joking that at least on a tiny Bonnie I can't drop it. Then bimbling down the Welland Valley on a narrow road near Loddington/Hallaton, on a down hill at a bend in the damp I slowed to a stop for a little girl on a pony being led by mum and Gran. A farmer had been flaying his hedges, hadn't properly cleared up and as I stopped on a wet thick stick the stick scooted off one side-ways and my front wheel completely lost it and now Bonnie has a wee scrape on the back of the can. One of those sticks that would have cracked apart in the dry.

Figwold had peeled off back home when Nick and I stopped for a cuppa just after the drop, at the the Hillside Cafe at Belton layby on the A47 near Uppingham.

 

Sorry to hear about your mishap Rich, I hope the damage isn't too great/noticeable ?

 

Sorry to hear this Rich, its so easily done

 

These things happen so quick..bad luck mate hope you get the damage sorted ok

 

Unlucky Rich, I guess it could have been worse eh!

Yesterday I installed some R&G sliders to my Speed Triple
- Engine sliders R+L
- Frame sliders (Aero) R+L
- Rear wheel bobbins (Already have EvoTech sliders on the front)
- Handlebar bar ends

Didn't take long to fit, although my bike now resembles an R&G spare parts catalog so I intend to replace some of the R&G stickers with Triumph ones.

I don't wish to be tempting fate by fitting this protection but should she slide or just drop, at least I have it covered

 

Did you do them twice ? been having some Blue sky's here too, although it's starting to get a bit cold so having to wrap up now

 

The jacket and trousers my wife got me for my birfday which were far too hot in Italy a couple of weeks ago, were perfick yesterday and kept me lovely and warm.

Oh how the temps have changed !!!!!

 

Wow never had you down as a high stakes fashion icon Dave, too hot for italy Eh, who knows when you've down graded on your style a little we may catch you on the Milan fashion catwalks

 

You sarcastic cnut !!
You maybe take the pish, but I'll have you know that my modified jeans are a BIG hit in Paris and my mate Karl paid me a bucket of cash for the idea !!!!!

 

Nah Dave, not among all the other dings and dents from a hard life lying by the kerbside

 

Not you!! The bike!

 

Does this mean that you have finally ditched the kevlar "joggers" Dave?
