What Have You Being Doing With Your Non-triumph Today?

I got the opportunity to ride some of those roads about two years ago when we were in Austin for MotoGP and the Handbuilt Show, @JtC. Beautiful countryside and great roads. Glad to read you've been able to get out and ride a bunch recently!

 

My brother and I were supposed to go to that GP but I couldn't get off work. Maybe next time if there is one. Highway 337, etc. are a blast. Glad you got to go!

 

Well I’ve been busy during the lockdown Bought a couple of manuals and started a couple of small projects just missing somego juice for this one.
And I’ll be buggered if I can find the answer to a question on this one



will I need a metric or imperial Socket set? I’ve already got a circuit tester.

 

Wouldn't mind a go in the MF when you've got it up and running Steve. My Starship's a bit shot to be honest. The downside uploader's shagged and they've been disconbobulated.

 

Never mind that MF this is a spaceship mate.

 

Nice ride out to Melton Mowbray and then on to Market Harborough.

Very pleased that Buttercup Tearooms, my stop of choice on this route, had reopened for take aways so I could get a cuppa and cake too

Went for an early morning ride to Swanage .

 

Is that yours James ?
Just wondering about that radiator grill, is it carbon fibre ?

 

That my friend is the Liberator.

 

The Liberator ? The only Liberator i've heard of is the WW2 bomber.
What is this Liberator you speak of ?

Feckin Blake's Seven, Christ your program choice up there is worse than ours marra

 

Ah Blake's Seven !, loved that !

 

Servalans knockers still do it for me

 

With the weather set to change I thought I'd slip in an evening ride around a few lanes of Leicestershire and Derbyshire and managed 60 pleasant miles

 

got new rubber on my 88 hawk gt, Q3+ and fresh painted wheels and put the headlight cans back on and pushed her out side for a few pics.

 

What I have been doing with my non triumph today? I sold her
Just sold my Yamaha 750 FZX that put me on the roads again 2 years ago.
Very fun bike, sell it with a bit of regrets, but there is a world between this bike and the 1050 ST. handling, confort, brake.. modern !
And I still have my Honda RC31 1988 to put back on the road.

 

very clean work ! Were the wheels powder coated or sprayed ?

 

FZX... I used to have one of those - took some great trips with that.

 

I sprayed them myself. Good old rattle can job just like the body work. But I used K2 clear to finish it off.
