Apart from the Daytona, I wouldn't mind the Tiger.

But there's no prospect of me adding to the SVorg - Triumph owners section

The Tigers a fun little trail bike.
So comfy,relaxed and light(Low Seat fitted) but even with the 125 extra cc it lacks the rush of my Daytona.
Tried a Street killed my thumbs??
Was tempted to try the rocket ship you have Mark.

Yep, Lings Watton

I wasn't willing to wait for a go on the street, too many queuing up to have a go on it...and after giving the 1200 explorer a go I was a little deflated on the performance side of things...I am definately a torque monster now

So......I went looking for things I'd not normally ride...the Truxton was actually quite a lot of fun after I got used to the strange handlebar arrangement, the little twin was nice

You should have had a crack on the rocket, nothing else like it

It has to have a shaft for me now.....look what my triumph cruiser has done to me lol

Yes, it does have lots of pro's for it.

I've had 3 shaft drive bikes cx500, Guzzi Spada & BMW R80.

Cx & Guzzi were great, the Beemer is one I wished I'd never bought

I did some serious miles on a Yam XV 750 and that's an old tec shaft.
But chains are better than they used to be an auto oilers can be set up not to chuck oil every were,

Did manage to steal a couple of hours on the bike over the weekend but not enough for a "planned" ride...

Forfeit BBQ at Skips then.

lol, sounds good to me!

I have just built a new fancy BBQ, some say over the top but I don't think you can overdo a bbq IMHO...once the rest of the garden has come together a little I might suggest a get together at mine if any are up for it...just waiting for some grass to grow and thicken up mostly...

Wifey is up for it, she'd like to meet some of the bad influences lol!

maviczap · 23-04-14, 08:14 PM

I'm up for that

kaivalagi · 23-04-14, 08:19 PM

Sounds like a good opportunity to get a ride in up to Hunstanton and then east along the coast then back down to mine after
