I've bought a Triumph........it's a triple!
But an old man's one!
  Motorcyclescrewsreviews - Triumph Leg-end One of those spur of the moment things - idea is that it will replace the dying Scooter  ........all I need are some soft panniers and a screen (also at £1600 a few bits on the bike to be "tidied up")........and some louder pipes ..............and possibly a sidecar. to go with my pipe and slippers  Still have the SV650 . and still waiting for the Dealer to call with the parts from Suzuki

£300 should buy you brand new loud Triumph exhausts which look exactly like the standard ones. Nothing else looks right on one of these. Dont bother with the pipes they look **** within a week from new. Fit a 1 tooth bigger gearbox sprocket if you want nicer cruising.

Re: I've bought a Triumph........it's a triple!
You wont get pulled with the triumph ones, on tickover they sound the same as the originals, when you get going they sound sublime, not like your average crap can. Also Triumph stamp not for highway use on them but cunningly underneath so no one will ever see it. No copper is going to crawl on the floor to look, how may Harley's do they do for noise. Graham

Re: I've bought a Triumph........it's a triple!
Looks really nice that, I think my next triumph will be something like that, from what I gather on another forum, triumph stuff is pretty good actually.

The coppers don't seem to care about old boys bikes around here, seem more interested in the race reps.
