Maybe the v4 has broken down already lol.

Triumph are making some nice bikes at the moment, some cool retro stuff. There is a dealer just near my office, been meaning to have a nosey....

Lol.. I'm not Ducati lover at all..they sound like a cheap washing machine with fucked bearings.... as I've stated on here before you can't beat the howl off an inline 4 with a 4-1 system.....

I agree about the Triumph range... some nice stuff they are listing up at present...

Marmite sound, always sound better in the flesh. I get more comments/head turns re my 1299 sound than RR, particularly cold start & petrol station antics.

99% of time, it?s the men who get the horn over it. The 1% was a lady in a 911 who came over to chat Ducati.
Knew her stuff.

And yes she was, and yes you would.

Personally, prefer the IL4 too.

No pal, fail.

My sister in law ( the wife?s twin) was filling up with the pump behind me.

If Carlsberg did petrol stations with potential further pump action, Tesco extra wasn?t it.

Yep, high maint tinder date.

Show me a hint of cleavage dome, ask for ?1,000 up front to service it & then tell me it?s got a headache & perhaps we should just hold hands and be friends.

Had a look at the Triumph's on display at the bike show today. Bobber is nice , Thruxton R with the full cafe racer pack in white was stunning.

Have to say I enjoyed it more than I have for the past few years. Still wasn't brilliant though. It was busy , plenty bikes in the parking outside and loads of cars. Spoke to Hutchy and he's determined to get the NW200 as he needs that to race at the TT , he still has the fixator on but is getting an X-ray this week coming which obviously will be the decider if he's racing or not. Some good deals on helmets and boots and some absolute shite as per usual.

I went for a browse round the duke/triumph show room a coup,e of weeks ago, when the car was next door for a service.
Some very nice machines to look at in both ends. And was very tempted by the Tiger Sport. They had a very nice grey and yellow one.
