Triumph Classics

[Throttle]

If you are riding a Triumph Thunderbird, plse give a shout here.

We can exchange resources and experience.

I estimate less than 5 thunderbirds still on the roads now.

 

Cheers

[Throttle]

anyone can recommend where to go to get twin headlights fitted.

I'm think of getting them for my thunderbird.

May look a bit weird with twin headlights but i do want to try that out.

 

it will become a thunder "speed triple" bird, hahahah

[Throttle]

I dont mind getting original Speed triple twin headlights if they fit.

But if the price is really exorbitant then no point.

 

Anyone got lobang?

[Throttle]

hhmm, wonder if any Thunderbirds will be at Marina today?

[Throttle]

hoping to catch other Thunderbird riders in here.

 

Anyone else? Nick are you around still?

 

Would be good if Thunderbird riders could get together once in a while to share resources and stories.

Guess not eh?

[Throttle]

Well I personally was a little too lazy to go down to Marina.

 

AS of today, I know that there are 4 thunderbirds ( 2 chinese + 2 Angmoh) on the streets.

 

3 Maroon

1 Green

 

Will likely respray mine to black when i find time.

[Shiner]

wow.... that's fascinating indeed....

[Throttle]

still hoping to find more thunderbird riders in this forum.

[Throttle]

Nothing , they arent really connected.

Being lazy and not going down to Marina was just my reply to Shiner.

 

Outlining the 4 thunderbirds is to see if anyone here reading this thread has seen some other thunderbirds beside those 4 i mentioned. Revealing the colors and riders make it easier for brothers in this forum to identify.

 

I dont know exactly how many there actually are left in Singapore, that's why I trying to find out.

[This Old Man]

Ic.

 

Good luck in your quest then....

 

Y'll still meeting tomorrow?

[Throttle]

Meeting?

 

I dont know of any meeting....

 

I'll be out of town til LAte friday evening anyway

[Blackie21]

[Throttle]

thanks for the tip Blackie!

Hello Friends ... I ride naked bikes for over 10years. When I visited Mah I noticed the Triumph Speed master. It really impressed me by its looks.

Can any one please give more info to me about this speed master.

Its milage ?

regular maintenance ?

Parts availability ?

City riding comfort (As I am 6' tall I am worried) ?

Crusing NSH .... ?

Just wonder in singapore roads is there one running?

 

Thanks for your patience in answering my curiousity

[Throttle]

hmmm, havent seen one on the roads.

I think its the one and only in Singapore?

 

parts may be purchased via Mah Motors.

 

Unless in the unfortunate event of a crash , i dont think you need to worry about parts at all.

 

Perhaps you should go down to the showroom again and sit on it longer for a better feel.

 

Good luck !

Hi Throttle

 

Thanks for your advise. I went there yesterday (Thursday) and felt it again. I am told that its a 2003 model and also its the only one in Singapore. The 2 rocket 3 that was there also sold. So can see more Triumph on road ..... Cheers

Besides the two Rockets, the T100 and Thruxton has also been sold.

 

Another T100 is on the way, and its already spoken for with a hefty deposit. So that makes another 3 more to join the Triumph Classics family.

 

Triumph is offering a deal on '05 Rockets (only differences: '05 have chrome cam covers, '06 is pure black engine. '05 and '06 have different speedo background colour) The price will be the same, but they will come with a free package of accessories (fixed package). Mah Pte Ltd will be taking two pieces of this offer bikes. Bookings are welcomed.

 

One Rocket III Classic is on the way, along with the Daytona 675s (one piece spoken for already)

 

Maybe another Thruxton and the Scrambler 900?

 

Expect to see more Triumphs on the road! In a year where most manufacturers reported massive declines, Triumph reported a 42% growth!

 

In fact, before the first production Daytona 675 came out, UK alone had already collected 900 deposits!

 

Style, pricing, performance, durability (the Rocket has a 16,000km service interval while the Daytona 675 has a 10,000km interval!)

 

Looks like the Brits have finally got it just right.

[Throttle]

wah....T100, i like.........

 

Welcome welcome Triumph Family.....

 

I think I'm gonna try to respray my Thunderbird before I go to Hong KOng mid Feb so that my Baby can look good in front of all the new machines on the roads.

 

[Throttle]

REddevil, while you are importing the machines, maybe canimport the babes as well

anyone here had their Triumph resprayed?

If so, where is a good place to do that? Removal and installation of parts required.

 

Thanks
