    Collect my Daytona Saturday morning, will be going straight in the garage for a clean, as its going to be raining, according to the met office...
    Dont want for anything, so no doubt there will be a list of "oh, if anyone wants to buy me a Christmas present.." by sunday.
    One thing thou, what is better, an Abba stand, or a single sided rear paddock stand?
    I know. Both!
    Ooooh cant wait for Saturday, got bedroom furniture to assemble, prepare for the follow week away, sort out a few other bits, and of course stand in the garage, tea in hand, just gazing at the new addition.

    Really nice to ride home, even though condition where horrible, sounds nice with the can, safely tucked away in the garage, awaiting some attention...

    What??????
    2 small bubbles!!!!!!!!!!
    Take it back from whence it came and demand a full and immediate refund.
    Well, perhaps not!
    Fantastic looking bike you have there, like a beautiful summers day, love it.

    That is a real beauty, looks so much better than the double sided swinging arm version that I had back in the day.
    Got to agree that the abba stand is an essential addition to any bikers armoury.

    I found some old faded photos of me on my 955 Daytona doubled sided swinging arm version at Castle Combe back in 2001, like I said the single sider looks better!
    I did a lot of track days back then & eventually sold on the Daytona in favour of a Aprilia RSV-R which was much better equipped for track junkies.
    The Triumph was good though as nobody expected you to be fast on the Daytona & surprised more than a few R1's & Gixxers on tracks that weren't just about top speed, when I put it on the dyno with a race pipe it put out a very respectable (for that time)131 bhp at the back wheel.
