    Hi guys,
    I need your opinion on my Triumph. I have a 1996 Triumph Adventurer 900cc I just had a shop go thru it and rebuilt the carbs with all OEM parts including new carb to head rubber connectors. All fluids changed, new sinter brakes front and rear. new chain, new rear brake pressure switch, new gas cap, new plugs, air filter along with inline fuel filter, new petcock. Also have the coil stick conversion kit to go with it. Purchased OEM engine guards, OEM back rest with luggage carrier. Handle bar clock. Cell phone holder. New battery with battery tender. New wind screen. Tires are like new. I have over $5000.00 into it. Has a little over 16k miles. Have misc parts that’ll go with it. I would like to get $5500.00 out of it to recover my expenses I’ve put in the bike. I would like your guys thought on this. Thanks in advance.
    Dan

    I really don’t need to sell it. Wanted something a bit bigger is all.

    Thx but I think I’ll pass on that one. I’d get lost in her wrinkles. Lol

    My mate reckons that sometimes the wrinkles are the best bit ! Then again the mother of his daughter was a whore with pimples and a huge swastika tattooed on her back. True .. yer can't make stuff like that up. Not all bad though, when she died, I grabbed her washing machine ... and years later it's still working perfectly. haha .. alway's a silver lining, eh ? Enough pleasant daydreaming, reality say's get out there and tape the broken indicator up before the sun rises, for officially being into winter, we're getting some magic weather !
