What did you buy today ???

[Grumpy old man]

They went gold as quickly as they are single skin Stainless steel no chrome on these headers

When fitting these make sure to clean all finger grease off the stainless with Isopropol alcahol or white spirits before starting up for the first time or the grease will help to make darker spots on the surface faster usually in the shape of your hand where you were in contact with the pipe

These are a good product for the money my last set on a Bandit 1200 went bluish after the first run as the bike was a bit lean due to the bigger inner Diameter and K&N filter

I bought a new torque wrench as my old one is F.U.B.A.R.

26" ?      That's bloody high pitch for a 200hp.  If the motor can spin it up to full throttle, that 17' boat will be low flying!!

Hello to all!

was away for some time
Mainly because lack of time, cause I purchase new apartment and was dealing with making it home for my family.

But yesterday, I get my new Triumph Tiger 900 Rally Pro, which I order in August 2020!!! 8+ months of waiting!
Because of purchasing new home, I had no enough free funds to pay for bike, and was even ready to ask my deposit back, but my lovely Mrs. Northern could not stand my disappointment, so she paid herself what was left!
Supper happy, with it 
It's not 14, but we have to admit, bikes are pretty much evolved, during last 20 years

Actually, I'm 3 times happy:
New Home,
New Bike,
Superb woman in my life!

P.S. 14 is still in my stable, and it's running without any issues. Using it as a city commute bike

[Hooli]

All the best people have Triumphs.

I had a Daytona 675, fantastic bike, now im thinking of a 1050GT like Hooli, and just had a look online at the 1200 triple, ive always liked triumph.  The 1200 would be good for a test ride

I had the T595 lovely bike

I remember trying to keep an early Speed Triple 1050 in site on my 14 years ago. That was a pointless task! the Trumpet just vanished down the twisty road like I was stood still, I can only imagine they've got quicker.

If I had the money to buy a Triumph... I wouldn't.
