Good to see you on a bike again after recent events mate
Rictus Had a series of Speed Triples which are the 3 cylinder 955cc bikes with twin bug eyes, then he had a TT600, which is the in-line 4 supersport 600 from which the speed 4 is created by providing less plastic.


HTH Zig!

PS: Saw this bike in the flesh a couple of days back on my way to work, looked very tidy

Drop the pegs a little Lou, whilst it's ridable currently, it's not without pain.

Cheers Mark.

Mark, glad you have your new Trumpet wheels sorted! Hope you're enjoying it.

I meant to say... I think you passed me early on Monday evening going along Hornsey Lane (at about 6:45pm?) - but I was in my car, so I won't be offended that you didn't see me . I guessed that you had perhaps just picked it up.

They's not Air Intakes, they're Rocket Launchers for the next to$$er that tries to knock him off his bike.

well actually I'd got it the day before from Ipswich, but had to leave it up in Enfield to get the Bandit back home for collection, 4 hours across London on Bus & tube that day to collect it, but I did indeed return that way,;I'd never knowingly ignore you Caz......
