    Hi Bonzo,

    ....I ain't no 'maffs wizzo' but I reckon a RAC membership works out a better bang for buck!....

    Cannot understand why Triumph did'nt use rims with the external spoke flanges like BMW used on the GS1150 I used to own then tubeless tyres can be used on spoked rims and still look contemporary and I could've used Slime or similar to prevent or cure the problem of a puncture.

    Cheers,

    dickydido

    Yeah mate, I used to run an R1150GS too and the timeless set up looked ace.

    I think they definately missed a trick there.

    I wish they had either fitted alloy wheels as standard or offered them as an option. Could run tubeless tyres and have no rusting of spokes and rims on the T120.
