Just picked up
« on: 23 March 2013, 07:03:15 pm »
My Triumph Sprint RS, I also rode it home through drifting snow.  I tell you what if I'd of had some coal in my pants there would of been enough pressure to turn it into diamonds when my arse tightened up.

It wouldn't be fun if it was easy, I just wish it wasn't this much fun.

It got a bit dirty on the way home but I'll stick some up tomorrow if I get round to it.  Got my top box to sort and plug the heated clothing in.  From the wintery experince so far though it's a cracking bike, I just hope it stays reliable because I use it for work lol.

I'll be going for ride outs when funds allow.  Only got 12300 miles on it, a 2005 bike.  Loads of official Triumph extras.

Nice bike, but I always wonder why they go to the trouble of having a lovely trick single sided swingarm and then hide it behind a fugly great can? That ike is just crying out for a hi level can

You had to have your fat cut out yer slimey fen dweller. Your so fat you cat get out of bed so you asked the hospital to leave the catherter in so you wouldn't swamp yer bed.
Also it is a nice bike more than happy with it.  Longer than the 6 but turns quite well.

It's the wrong time of year to buy a new bike.  I picked up my new R1200RT in January just before the snow arrived and I still haven't done enough miles to book it in  for the first service :-(

This one had just had it's 12k service done.  Went to work on it tonight and it was warmer than using my FZS600.  That fairing really takes the wind off.
