Good morning to you all. Newbie to your forum and also triumphs in general. I've currently got a 1998 triumph trophy 1200. Had a variety of bikes over the years and managed to pick this one up at a decent price off my mates dad. The plan was to keep it stock however that's gone out the window and it's currently in tear down. Hopefully get out and meet some of you guys in the future when it's back on the road. I'm Staffordshire based. Great forum you've got here with some great builds.
Welcome Baskey, nice bike. I’ve always liked the older Trophy, a bit of a marmite bike some think. Post a thread on your tear down, I for one would be interested in seeing your progress
Good morning Baskey and welcome aboard. That's a good looking project you have. Best of luck with the mods and ride safe and enjoy!
Cheers for the warm welcome to you all. I will get some pics and start a thread with progress pics ASAP. My timing with projects seems particularly bad as we're expecting Bask jnr 2 in about 2 weeks. As for the bike, to be fair I'm really happy with it. I like stuff that's a bit different. The bike has had to go on a diet tho as the pic didn't show me pushing back up the hill as I couldn't get it off the side stand.. Few ideas up my sleeve tho so hopefully the end result will be cool. Look forward to getting it done and hopefully getting some rides in.
