Featured What you been doing with your TRIUMPH today??

Always reminds me of when I thought I had paid the largish bird a compliment:
"You don't sweat much for a fat lass do you"

 

Further to this a mate of mine has had to pull out of this rally due to his car gearbox going pop! He needs his car so priorities must!
This means a ticket is now available if anyone is interested

Update......ticket now gone

 

I had this setup on a first generation Fazer thou last year i can tell you that was interesting going up Sutton Bank to the farmyard party
Couldn't see a bloody thing in my mirrors!
Did Stormin the Castle like this with the speedmaster
Not bad at all really and I can use the mirrors

 

Fitted a few bits to the speed 16 from www.carbonfbr.com. more info in the speed forum.

 

The Speed's in the dealers today, having the first service and quickshifter, GPS and alarm fitted.
I was tempted to ask about heated grips again after this mornings ride!

Hi Andy...

.....refreshing to read comments, negative or positive, from somebody who's actually rode it for a change.....

Cheers,

Hi Andy,

.....all my life I've never been the one 'to follow the well worn path'......so I guess that's why I like the Bobber so much....it's as eccentric as I am!.....

....I'll miss my Thruxton when it goes but again, the LT I'm replacing it with, is also eccentric and less mainstream in a totally different way to the Bobber and if it gets Mrs dickydido out on a bike with me again then that will be a fantastic result in my book....

Cheers,

dickydido

 

Bikers were out there today in flocks...
But it is funny, how they all stick to the same roads.
So you find yourself all alone suddenly despite all the fuss

 

Thanks mate!

 

And a tree!! Don't forget the tree!!


Damn those voices!

 

OK guys!
Weather today even better than yesterday.
Had myself a little break at the apex of one of my favorite bends in the Spessart.
Pics show a couple of incoming bikes, and the departure climb.
Great road. Narrow, but well paved. Sheer fun!
And that Bonneville is definitely the best thing on two wheels that happened to me so far
(Oh, @stevethegoolie and @Dozers Dad : I couldn't avoid the trees entirely. Too many around )
