Nice discs... Galfer? How much moolah did it cost u?

[mamat]

dylan,the triumph guy from mah,says triumph will start mass producing the street triple in Feb.mah bringing in a mth later.they plan to showcase 1 and begin taking orders.buyers have to place a deposit.he said it's gonna be affordable,abt $1K more than the Hornet...saving money saving money..

[desewer]

Yup. I normally speak with Dylan when I'm over there. Got some good deals from him. Then again, I think I can be considered a good customer. Never missed a payment.

 

He asked me to check out the new SpeedMaster. I viewed the 2008 models on the Triumph webbie. Great line-up in store for us!

 

Too bad I'm saving for something else. A SpeedMaster as a second/third bike would be sweet.

[swirlacer]

i wan my daytona...so dylan is the guy to speak to? ask him to wait for me to order special edition daytona next year. hehe...

[desewer]

Swirl try to put at least 30% downpayment, and take a 3-year loan for the balance. That way it's more affordable.

[swirlacer]

ok...like tt i must work it out liao...how much their interest again? 4% p.a? or 4.5% p.a? wah...based on my calculations, per mnth will be 485!!hum....

[desewer]

Oh yah hor... Maybe try a longer loan of 4 years or 5 years, or down 50%...

[swirlacer]

fainted...hurhur....not yet class 2...so still got....8 more months to go.save save.

[mamat]

Not really... Don't see the need to get a similar bike... yet! Once my COE expires next April only then will I make a choice...

 

How much gas mileage u get out of ur triumph?

Mah is bringing in all Triumph models is it?

[desewer]

How much gas mileage u get out of ur triumph?

 

A full tank (without reserve) of 15 litres can last me for 200-230km. That makes 15km/l at best.

 

Damn. I just realised how fuel-hungry my engine is... Maybe some tuning is in order...

[Blackie21]

my super 3 (stock standard), many moons ago gave me about 16-18km/l.

the tiger, which wasn't really standard, only managed at best 13km/l cruising at around 6000rpm, better if the right hand was a little softer.

the t509 was giving me about at best 15-16km/l, but again it slightly customised.

[swirlacer]

hey blackie, u rode 3 triumph models before??!?!?!

[Blackie21]

i was fortunate enough to have owned them in the past....they are still lurking on the roads in s'pore!

[mamat]

wow all gas guzzlers

how much,do u think,is the mileage for the street triple with a 17.1 L tank?

daily commute considering

[desewer]

You should be able to reach at least 230-250km before reserve, if the bike is STOCK.

 

I'm on an aftermarket exhaust and different fuel map, hence the higher FC.

[Blackie21]

stock bikes are economical as its a balance between power and efficiency, once you go down the power route, you compromise economy.

basic principal, if you do not want to sacrifice economy do not ask for more power, something has got to give.

[desewer]

I'll retune to map 9852 in December. That gave me about 230km before reserve.

[Blackie21]

i do not know why but it seems that i have a knack of spotting triumphs on the road....caught a speedie today at around 540pm around the benjamin sheares bridge area heading towards the west......
