    *******************************SOLD**********************************


    Bought by me in May 2019. 6,400 miles, 2 new Road 5 tyres with 400 miles, fly screen, fender extender, power socket, heated grips. Both services done by Triumph dealer who sold it. Never been on it's side.

    A knee injury has come back to haunt me and it's unlikely I will be able to ride this again. It's been a fantastic bike and that engine is amazing. I'm considering a Tiger 900 GT and by working the figures backwards, the best deal I had so far makes it worth £8000. which is what I want for it.

    PM for photos and chat.

    Hi Tall Paul
    Happened to notice that you had road 5s on the speed twin, had 4s on my thruxton and thought they were great. Just after a bit of feed back as to your views with them on the speed twin.

    Many thanks, did about 2000 miles on mine on the Thruxton mainly 2 up and they looked hardly worn and could not really tell any difference in grip to the Rosso and I thought they were far more versitile for everyday riding.

    You won't regret fitting them. They are a real improvement.

    I've got Road 5's on my speed triple. Love them.
    Bike feels really planted, and they're very confidence inspiring in the wet.

    Yes, I had no confidence in the wet with the Rossos, Road 5 is a tyre for all conditions.
