Featured What you been doing with your TRIUMPH today??

Starting to build a nice collection

 

Glad to see you've got a burka on the ugly one!

 

Been trying to find good quality chain in blue, anyone know a shop in the UK that would send to Finland? Got an `02 955i Daytona (the DSSA version if it counts)

EDIT: Found an RK 530G xw-"superlink" chain just round the corner here, should be good? Don`t wanna put a piecost chain into a bike with 146hp...

 

Taken the panels off of the Daytona to start detailing the bike with only a bit of swearing involved.

Bike has been a right pain to start so I checked the plugs and number 4 cylinder plug had a load of oil in it.

by the look of it just needs a new rocker cover gasket might also put Iridium plugs in and check the leads

 

Popped up snetterton and thought it rude not to do the afternoon sessions on the speed triple RRRRRRRRRRR

 

Exhaust and set of mirrors for the Trident won off of E Bay :biggrin:

My garage is now starting to resemble a breakers yard at the moment

 

Washed it tonight after work - only fair after yesterdays playing in the rain - not helped by the superb condition our local farmers leave the roads in! One shitty little sign saying mud on road FFS! :tongue:

Are they Metezler K3's on your bike as they were a real bloody handful on wet roads . slippery as a very slippery thing on a slippery day.

M5's are much better for roads.

 

Yep - they are standard equipment on the Speed - your right about slippery! I think I will go for a set of PR3's once these have had their day? Quite a few on here recommend them.

 

Shouldnt be long now seems as you only use the centre section of the tyres..... Just saying x :wink:

Fitted a tail tidy now that looks better.

MR H the pr3s are bloody good who ever had my speed triple before me had them fitted, sooooooooooo much confidence in the wet/damp.

 

I think I've found a Michelin tyre more suited to your style of riding...

Today I have been at the Keihin factory in Redditch with a mate who is getting a new exhaust for his Rocket 3 made. Really nice people and I am seriously tempted to get new exhausts for the America.

 

Radiator, brake master cylinder and L/H handlebar brought for the Trident today. So got everything I need to get the bike back on the road. just need a new front mudguard and a few other bits and I'll be back on the road :smile:

 

And a pallet truck to move the different bikes around the garage? :smile:
