Featured What you been doing with your TRIUMPH today??

Years ago when the inlaws lived in Troutbeck I came up from Ullswater and got stuck near the top - it had been snowing and my trusted Peugeot 205 couldn't make the last bit near the summit had to turn round and take the long way home...

 

Great pictures Duck

 

Now that's what you call a commute!

 

Borrowed a paddock stand from my mate Gordon
Had a reet fanny on getting it to work but got there in the end
Then used some ratchet straps to lift the front end up so I can remove the front wheel and get the tyre changed
The lift hole in the garage cross beam is left over from years ago when I had my Fireblade hanging while the wheels got Powdercoated

 

And it’s out
Didn’t have a 17mm Allen key so I did the old two nuts on a bolt trick
Will get the tyre fitted by a bloke not far from me cos he’s got all the gear
Think I’ll overhaul the brakes while I’m at it

 

Is it only me but I can imagine you slicing up the christmas turkey with a grinder.....?
"'Cus its quicker!" i can hear you shout......

 

Go on, do the fork seals. You know you want to.....

 

ebc HH pads.....
Do it now.....

 

They were done not so long back according to the paperwork I got with my TWAT

 

have a look at SBS brake pads there not silly money and are excellent.

Have a look at Squaredeals https://www.squaredeals-ltd.co.uk/ they do full front sets (4 pads) of EBC sintered pads for most Triumphs for just under £40 and rears for £20. They also do other far cheaper makes.

 

Just been round to pick my wheel up
Tyre fitted and balanced £10

 

And the list keeps growing

 

You need JD on that list mate

 

The cat litter is for soaking up what the TWAT might leak???

 

That’s exactly what it’s for
Hopefully it won’t be needed

 

Spitfires are at sywell (Northampton U.K.) today....
That’s my afternoon sussed out then!
