[Group] TRIUMPH Speed Triple Riders

[Blackie21]

 

Yah loh. BTW I meant Plaza Singapura, not Singapore Plaza What bike are you riding now Blackie? Maybe I will join you next time .. with Coolcat.

 

just got the guzzi, not riding as much i would like to these days....maybe i will go get the old tiger from JT and have a spin on her.

 

the cat also has not been riding much lately.

[yohji]

I check with Mah already, they have no much plates left. Those they have prices are not fitting my budget

 

My M400 have no head cowl.. thats why once past 120.. any cross wind the bike will feel uneasy.. not a nice feeling...

Maybe my balls is made of jelly.. lol

 

My M400 didn't have head cowl also. I find it ugly and useless Ok lah anyway you have Street Triple now. You seldom will get cross wind because you are too fast

Thought you had sold when I saw you riding another bike!

 

my all time favorite day ride is up to kluang on the highway via 2nd link, across to mersing and back via kota tinggi up to kluang again and back via the 2nd link.

 

That's a nice Sun morning run man, stop for coffee and Nasi Lemak in Mersing and back in time for a pm rest zzzzzzz

Hey hey nice meeting both of you

 

Must go Msia to hear the full blast. Can blast till the max once we cross over the Singapore customs

 

Sorry got pillion last night, so didn't suggest a longer ride. The next meetup, we'll be taking your car (super) ok?

 

I know how you feel man .. the wait is a mental torture. But time passes by very quickly. Soon it'll be July and there'll be another Triple on the road

[swirlacer]

by the way, i think i saw u at mah on sat yohji..along with another triple rider the uncle..

U shud have joined us tat evening man , we were talkin bout this same thing quite a few schools of thought , some say ride like u stole it then change engine oil every 100-200km for the 1st 400,

 

im abit more conservative i say ride like like yud ride a bike normaly , use all gears n rev it a lill here n there , try not to stay at any 1 rpm to loooong on expressway mix it up with gear 4 at 6000, gear 6 at 4000+ etc normal roads rev it a lill here n there . change EO to another set of mineral oil after the 1st 100km , then another set of mineral oil at 500-600 , then at 1000++ semi synth till u hit 2000+ on the odo metter n the break i shud b very well n done

 

but tats my conservative style of doing it la , best read up online so u know wat yur style yur most comfortable with

+1 Keep the revs moving and avoid trying to accelerate under 3k, change down and accelerate, use the engine to brake as much as possible. Go easy on the tyres as well, tempting to get carried away Check the engine oil level religously , new engines can use quite a bit till they settle in, if there are any problems you can go back to the dealer with a clear conscience and not get BS over warranty .

 

I'ts torture for that first 1k km

 

Pity I didn't see the meetup post till too late, sounds like you had a lively time.
