Triumph Classics

Ho ho... nice catch dude. I bet if you didn't get that Z1 you'd be on a triple.

 

yes, might very well have been, desewer....

[swirlacer]

Z1, new OTR or 2nd hand? the Zed does have that streetfighter look also...kinda agressive styling. how does it run?

[Throttle]

2nd hand 3 yrs old

 

i stopped buying brand new bikes long ago becos i have no chance to really make use of them so dont want to spend so much.

 

But it had only 3909km on the Odo. previous owner was exactly like me, hardly ride.

 

Nowadays Kawasakis run very very smooth....

it's quite torqey and allows high revving.....

I havent gone pass 130km/hr yet.

Probably wont ever.

 

later bro

[swirlacer]

haha...yea even with my class 2a bike, i havent go past 130km/hr in sg. nv been to malaysia oso. so i supposed u got it at a good price?

[coolcat]

Just saw a FN Triumph ThunderBird red with Thruxton-like exhausts at Minerva workshop. Very clean bike.

 

Cheers

. so i supposed u got it at a good price?

 

yeah i would like to think so , heh

 

Perhaps i'll get a speed triple after a few years?

[desewer]

Wishing all thread regulars here Selamat Hari Raya...

[desewer]

There's a malay guy in the sembawang area riding one.nice looking machine.pipes sound tame

[desewer]

You sure it's a SpeedMaster? I can't tell the difference between one and a Bonneville unless both are side by side heh

[Throttle]

so far i havent seena speedmaster on the roads yet.

 

It is totally diff from a bonnie, Desewer.

If you mistake the speedmaster for a harley , i can understand.

But certainly not for the bonnie, mate

[swirlacer]

bonnie more classy than speedmaster. speedmaster has that more stretched out look i suppose...no thruxton in SG? i would love to see a truxton. cafe style. woo... anyway throttle, get the street triple la...haha...

[Throttle]

Yes there is a Thruxton ridden by an angmoh who has joined us in the vintage bikes meet up before. He also rides a Sportster.

Very cool bike. nice exhaust tone too.

[Blackie21]

saw a nice triple digit bird lurking ard east coast yesterday.....really nice clean looking example!

keep the trimph spirit alive!

[Throttle]

Is the plate FN999?

[Blackie21]

as a matter of fact it was......

[Throttle]

I see, Hope the current owner has done it up well.

I'm truly a little regretful now that my Triumph is gone.

oh well......life's like that aint it.

 

Later

[Blackie21]

didn't get a good chance to look at it close up but from a far, it looks sweet.

once you own a triple, you are kind of screwed...

yeah, am regretting not having one in the stable at this point in time as well.

[desewer]

How do you figure, you're screwed if you own a triple?

[Blackie21]

coz once u ride one, you will always one to have one

[desewer]

NOW it figgers.

[swirlacer]

haha....i wanna triple!

[Throttle]

How's it going fellas?

 

been travelling like a mad dog.

just back yesterday, gone again tomorrow...

I think some days back, in a special bike pullout in TNP, Mah PL published the list prices of most Triumph models. Interesting to note that the Street Triple sells for only $17k I think.
