Featured What you been doing with your TRIUMPH today??

Sometimes Ron you just need a little nudge in the right direction, that's all we did, and you won the competition!

 

Hush now! ....... stop being such a drama queen, all you did was ask some lady to sit on your bike FFS!

I mean it's not like there is a court injunction that says you can't approach any of your female colleagues .. or is there?

 

Well at least you didn't take firearms to work and you only threatened him with a stroller (am I correct in thing this is a baby's push chair?), WTF would that be doing in the work place?

 

Isn't a stroller a walking frame?

 

Heading back south today. Came down the A828 and along the A85 then down the A819 to Inveraray, then the A83 and then the A814 to Helensburgh.

 

Careful mate, your admin's exploded

 

Well I’ve done a bit more on the Daytona today and it was all going well.
Cooling system all together with new silicone hoses, oil cooler, airbox and clutch cover all back together.
As I say, it was all going well until I came to do the last little thing on the cooling system before filling it up; putting the drain screw back in with a new copper washer, and the bloody thing snapped!
I’d hardly tightened it, it certainly wasn’t up to torque. So now I’ve got to try and get the sheared thread out. I’ve ordered a left hand drill bit, hopefully it can grip and unscrew the bit of thread. I certainly don’t want to have to strip it all down again to retrieve it from the water jacket!

 

Mostly swearing at rusty bolts....

 

Left at kinlochailort then? Did you have a look at Castle Tioram?

 

You don’t want to go there, it is a silly place

 

I

’Tis only a model...

 

Every since I bought my Street Triple the fogging inside the headlamp lenses has really annoyed me.



I decided to sort it out this morning, first job was to remove the headlamps, Triumph couldn’t have made it more difficult, but they came off in the end.

I decided to go in via the headlamp bulb aperture using a microfibre cloth and screwdriver





It’s worked really well, they’ve come up like new.

 

A quick couple of hours ride out through Goodwood, out to Midhurst, then home via Petworth and Arundel.
Followed by a polish.
Perfect Saturday morning!

 

I don't follow? Wasn't in Monty Python, was it?

 

Yes it was Castle Aaargh in Monty Python and the Holy Grail

 

I thought that was castle Stalker?

 

Was it? Might have them mixed up then.
Yep, just looked on google maps. I’ve been to them both too

 

Just changed this
to this....

And not a snapped bolt or any spanner rash in sight
Look out for the chrome one in the sale section

 

Beautiful ride up Mt. Charleston today, near Las Vegas NV. Close to the house, and a solid 30° cooler than in the valley. Today however, that was about 30° too cold, it was a chilly one.

 

Actually I'm about to remove the Denali Soundbomb Mini and the permanent charger lead, both if which I only put on about a week ago. Little did I know...
