I agree with the comments about the 10000 mile service interval. Surely it will be 10000 miles or every 12 months and I can't see many people doing in excess of that mileage per year on one of these so it makes no difference and offers no real advantage over a 6000 mile interval.
Took the Ditch Pump for short ride this morning and called in at a Triumph store. They’re hoping to get a demo bike at the end of Feb; with deliveries maybe stating sometime later. If yo pay a deposit you get to try the demo bike and if you don’t like it get your deposit back. The light weight really appeals to me being a knackered old git. They made an offer on my bike which will stand for a week if I want to let the pump go now. So, got a week to see which side of the fence I fall. Ken.
Careful Ken. The dealer will be a limited company, and this Covid winter will see many businesses run out of money and close. Your pump will have been sold and the money used up paying the firm's running costs. In effect you will be loaning them your money over the period when bike shops lose money, and live off their overdrafts. If they go bust you lose the lot.
WITHOUT iterate much of the stuff already, I like this bike especially for the sub 800cc class. I like the street triple engine but just can't get past the new dual bug eye...older models are better looking IMO. this new trident brought back some of the old triumph charm with a lot of goodies...and price is great honestly. but as some of the other here, I would opted for more "old school fender/race seat" look instead of the pointy racy ass...but that is just me..
