Change of bike
 

Put down a deposit on a replacement for my thundercat today, hopefully picking it up next week, i decided i wanted something with more torque, still sporty but with mile munching ability two up, tried a Honda CBF 1000, Bev liked the smooth engine, the comfort but said it was bland, who am i to argue !!. i'm only the driver. Then tried a bandit 1250s but didn't feel right on it, too upright and it felt twitchy in a crosswind. tried this and it felt right straight away, fast and comfortable with buckets of low down stomp. even from 30 in 5th it pulls like a train, can't wait to get it and start having fun. Triumph Sprint 955i, 2003, and with fitted panniers, also having a rear topbox rack fitted to take my topbox, will probably get a touring screen at a later date.

Re: Change of bike
 

just for clarity it's either a t595 or 955i, not a t955....:cool:

Re: Change of bike
 

EDIT i get what you mean now lol t595 or 995i, i was getting names confused

Re: Change of bike
 

triumph never made a t955. the t5 design at a capacity of 955cc (designated 95) made the t5/95 name to start with, it was later changed as people though it a 600cc, to 955(cc) I/njection, hence the name 955i, never was a T9 engine design.
