Hmm no pics from me. Maybe freerangestormer has some to share? I think we were too busy chatting and drinking I'm sure the pics will come out in the next issue of MCA

 

Went to Mah again this afternoon. Molested the Military-styled Speed Triple for a few minutes while Eugene was not around

 

Saw my neighbour's black Tiger in the workshop, getting ready to make the triple-cylinder roar in August

[CMYRS]

I told eugene to leave it.. since he keep insisting the sound is similar for the exhaust and its safer with the coppers.. Just the finish is non CF... oh well..

at least he gave me a visor as compensation..

iam thinking of removing the visor for daily ride and screw it on for cross border trips.. not sure how easy isit to remove on my own...

Sorry guys forgot to take camera in, anyway been hard to take good pics without HD's getting in the way .

 

Not so impressed with the show, good venue, amazing bike but I felt Truimph owners were not well supported nor the brand / range well emphasised.

 

On the plus side good to see all you guys after so long, been even nicer to have a ride together. Yohji, as a secret weapon Roulette Green is not the best choice of colours anyway which make of top box would you recommend for the Striple

 

They didn't run out of coke

I left it there once. I even brought my bike cover and asked Kenny to cover my bike

 

Yes my neighbour wants your carbon fibre PAD PAD! Let's arrange for a day to get it.

You can go to 219 or Juzz Wheelz. They can paste carbon fibre stickers all over the bike Nice choice man. Wanted to ask you why you didn't get the R version or the Speed.

 

Erm .. I recommend Givi? Since they have one of the ugliest boxes around :lol: Oh BTW, please DO NOT park your bike beside mine after you've installed your Givi rear-spoiler

 

Yeah, the Coke and Jack Daniels didn't run out @@

[CMYRS]

freerange, irish's man coke is guiness

 

 

ok yoyohji, pad is packed and ready for inspection. comes with all necessary sticker attachments should he decide superglue is not such a brilliant idea. haha.

Have any one hear change their levers for street or speed to titex/rizoma/pazzo??

Notice the street has orginal adjustable levers..

Genuine accesory levers available. I think those are Pazzo and brake / lever gear is common Japanese so should be available from normal supplier if you can work out which one.

Good morning all

My bikes started stalling when pulling up at junctions ,etc.

Its only just started doing it in the last week and its not everytime. After pulling up it ticks over at about 500 (ish) rpm and sometimes stalls. If it doesn't stall the revs then slowly pick up and it ticks over at just under 1000 rpm.

Once its ticking over at just under 1000rpm it doesn't drop and is steady and maintains smooth running.

The same with the clutch in or out.

No issue anywhere else and no loss of performance, no funny noises , not hot, just a bit annoying.

Its got 9500km under its belt and was serviced about 1500km ago (the tickover was ok then anyway).

 

Anyone had the same issue....looks like a trip to sort it out unfortunately.

Uh huh!!! Sounds similar to what I've experienced!! Mine even "rebooted" once at a traffic stop. Sometimes the backlight on my dash flickers while riding.

 

Check your battery connection (the 2 big screws) under the seat. Mine was loose. Everything went back to normal after cleaning and tightening. If not, just bring it back to the agent for a check ASAP. Look for Kenny. Nice chap.

 

Good luck!

[crazytown]

Thanks for the advice. I have noticed that the battery leads tend to get caught during removal/fitting of the seat.

 

Is Kenny the mechanic down there?

Biggish guy and wears glasses?

I heard from Eugene that they are trying to reduce the prices for all the triumph range...

Should be good news to new buyers..

[CMYRS]

dats interesting, prices went up a couple of Gs' for all models when the euro was at its all time low of 1.18 and now that its back up to 1.3, prices are coming down.
