Whats that in your avatar between that fine ladys legs  And the rim tape has got to go, but it might be replaced with yellow and I already have a genuine Trumpet 'aero' screen in light smoke to go on, no sight glass for the oil means the monkey who serviced it for the previous owner has over filled it, off to sort that then another blast methinks. EDIT God this thing is rapid, and it is a bit more thirsty than the SV was, compareing exhaust cans with a speed4 confirmed mine has the race can, bigger bore all the way through...

Re: Another Triumph convert
Well after nearly 18 months with the trumpet it's had some work, she's a keeper...
Replacement can, Scorpion Factory round in carbon. Metzeler M5's, the dunlops got scary when the rear wore down (2.5K miles for a duel compound?) Wheels re-coated in black, no rim tape. Shock overhauled, forks re sprung and valved to my weight with a refurb by Reactive suspension. And a full strip and rebuild, including some modifications to the wiring loom and a mosfet reg/rec. It's not fully back together yet but it shouldn't be long. Link to project thread Last edited by Stonesie; 16-03-13 at 09:05 PM. |
