shame its a leaky triumph

Its amazing what you can do with a 60's design 2.3ltr motor between 2 wheels!

Shame it costs so much to fuel he can't afford decent protective gear.

Jeans do not help, unless they are the proper armoured ones (Shoshoni spring to mind - although no longer made)

'Draggin Jeans'. Theyre kevlar lined and armoured.

See the way he throws it out of the bend and across the corner of that track! The power slide is a good bit of balance as well, but i bet he got all wobbly afterwards as it tried to highside him - Maybe why the clip is short.

Impressive riding anyway. There are a few Triumph ads like that, and they all have some very good riding. Not something id like to try and emulate!

2300cc, longitudinally mounted, gearbox behind, driveshaft to final drive at rear axle. Hang on, this is a car engine!

What a annoying advert,I would rather just watch the bike,and listen to commentary in the background,than keep flashing back and forth,nice bike though

Lovely bike, selling like Hot cakes all over the world well done to Triumph. Shows what Brits can do when a company get decent management.
Cheers,
Bob

You can't beat the 3 cylinder growl - so much more character than the jap lumps. My only regret is they don't make a supercharger kit for my Daytona engine, but they do for the rocket! If you don't mind the weight and the lack of revs (6500rpm), then it would make a cracking lump for a 7. Pick up a TTS supercharger kit and a Tuneboy, and 225bhp plus masses or torque is yours, with a free sequential box and propshaft thrown in...! But I agree, they are self oil chaging - I'm damned if I can find the leak!
