Featured What you been doing with your TRIUMPH today??

Oops! Wrong thread.

 

No, that's "batter".
To us that's what cod comes in!

 

I thougt I had a good idea....and buyed new Kellermann LED Turnsignals for my Street.
I removed the side panel from radiator...oops....there is no connection in the cable...next I removed the gastank....a work for a watchmaker or gynakologist...yuck!
Can't find the connection....open the airbox next step....remove the airfilter...nothing to see....next step (after a beer) I want to remove the rest from airbox...and the drama was going on....no way and no idea how I can do this....no place....the cables for gas are the problem and now..after 2 more beers I stopped my work for today...maybe tomorrow I will have a better idea . Who the f.....k was the constructor of this shit!
Maybe a chinese with very small fingers? For today I give up. Maybe anyone has a good idea to solve my problem.....

 

It's so embarrassing when you see that connector not 15cm from the indicators that wasn't there yesterday (it won't take too long to put the bike together again).

 

And on the same theme ...... sex! They're what posh people get their coal and spuds delivered in.

 

Yer bastid, @Wessa ! There was no need for that!! Does look tempting though, even after I had fish and chips for me tea! However, I'd need to swap the mushrooms for a second fried egg and then add tomatoes and a fried slice or two to get it up to standard. But that's just me. Ex trucker, remember!!
Belated Happy Birthday to Mrs. Wessa!

 

@Sandi T. I have a feeling this could become your favourite radio programme.

Ain’t that the number after five

 

Dunno. Are you sure?? I have to start counting the fingers and thumb on me other hand after five, and I get distracted doing that and then find I've lost count!!

 

@stevethegoolie
So basically you'd pretty much order a whole different breakfast then, Steve?!

 

Err ..... well ..... yes! I have a long standing arrangement with mushrooms - I don't like them (make me feel unwell) and they don't come near me. Seems to work. And one egg is no bloody good to man nor beast! Nearly got beaten by breakfasts at Whitwood Truckstop (Castleford) and Jacks Hill Truckstop near Towcester though. Both were mahoosive!! Real bellybusters. Morning Stena Line ferry from Dublin to Holyhead had free breakfast for truckers (actually included in the ticket price but free for us drivers!) in a designated restaurant on board. Plates were too small really, but you'd be surprised how high food can be stacked given a little practice!! Lunch on the Stena Line Belfast to Stranraer ferry (later re-routed to Cairnryan) was equally as good but was served to us by staff at the counter. The quantities were still generous though. I do eat healthier nowadays!!

 

Wow! That's beautiful! Glad I saw this. 1971?

 

Stripped the Thruxton wheels down ready for powdercoating matt black next week.

 

Just curious, why do you want to cover the chrome rims?

 

Because BLACK paint is available and SHOULD be used at every opportunity

 

But not on such a beautiful thing like the Thruxton r . Mind each to their own ....

 

Today I ar been mostly picking up the freshly painted bits off my TT.

if you read that in the voice of Mark Williams character Jesse from The Fast Show, well done!!
