Featured What you been doing with your TRIUMPH today??

I think you need a test meter

 

Picked my exhausts and front calipers up from ceramic coating yesterday and re-fitted this afternoon.

 

That looks very nice indeed.

 

Today I took the Street Triple and Helmut the Tuono to the outskirts of Cheltenham to run an errand. Very chilly and a bit foggy when we set out but soon warmed to chilly rather than very for the rest of the day .

We went to Gloucester Airport for a coffee and some lunch and it became apparent from the amount of spotters on the way in that there was something good there…which turned out to be a Vampire which was brilliant; Helmut got a few photos and videos . We also saw a Meteor come on to land. After that we returned home via Dom’s Bike Stop so got some good mileage in today on some great roads to ride .

 

Spring finally came to Gothenburg. Taken some rides running in the TEC cam. Even some short runs to rev limiter, it just revs so willingly, never had that problem with the stock cam. Well worth upgrade. My son bought a MV Agusta Brutale so been riding with him, changing bikes. No way i can keep up with him, that thing is fast and the way it handles in curves is just unbelievable. But it is nervous, half an hour on it and i am exhausted!

 

Wow, it definitely sounds--and looks--like it was a brilliant ride, @Wessa! Thanks for sharing your day with us in words and images.

 

Anybody interested?

A bit of maintenance on the speedy,and the w650.

 

Rode the Trophy out of the shed, massive fuel leak!! after stripping tank seat etc found cracked fuel line from tank to carbs at fuel tap end ( could be E10 connected?)
Shortened pipe and reconnected, seems OK now, fingers crossed.

 

Gotta love the military road.

 

Hi RevPaul. Happened to be scanning the forum when you sent this. I have driven mine now for about 1000km:s with the TEC cam. No problems at all, runs fantastic. Though i do not run the stock mapping, bought a map from DNK when the dike was still stock and running that so far even with the cam. Started using 98 octane E5 fuel though, not that i think it really matters but feels better! During weekend if i find the time i will download a map i got from another member of this forum that's dyno tuned on a Cup with TEC cam and X-pipe. I will keep my cat on place so will probably run a bit richer and not get out the last HP:s he got but his figures were impressive.

 

Great pix @Wessa, how are you finding the riding position after a ride this length?

 

Absolutely no problems. Prior to fitting the flat bars this length of ride would have been challenging. However the flat bars have transformed the bike. A much more comfortable riding position

 

Due to a small whether window of opportunity with good conditions I made a 70 km tour with my wife and our Bonnies. We stopped at a local reptile zoo and we were surprised about the big amount of different animals there. After that we rode to our local icecream shop and had some delicious icecream there.
In the following some impressions.

A very good day indeed. ❤️❤️

 

@Markus thank you - there are some great photos there of the reptiles. The bikes and food look pretty good too . I hope your wife is enjoying the difference the screen makes on her bike?

 

Hi guys. I just joined and for some reason cannot start any private conversations. Are there just restrictions set in place maybe?

 

@Mrs Visor: Yes, you are right. For her height the wind shield works great. The wind pressure against the whole upper body and the arms is nearly not noticable anymore while riding.

 

Not on the triumph, but in the car. Went to the BSB at Oulton Park. Wet early doors, but dried out towards lunch time. Some fantastic racing in all classes.
