Heretic

It's a twin, it has heritage, it's cool

Before I passed my bike test I sat on a new Thunderbird and thought it quite cool - I then bought a Monster and never looked back

 

And it's uglier than a 999 - apparently

 

t9's aint ugly. its a a thing of beauty

 

I'm only jealous

 

i would have one. maybe when/if i ever have time to fettle. all i want from a bike at the mo is somthing that starts of the button and washes its self.

 

Not too much to ask of an Italian machine after all
I try to deal with the latter part of the conundrum by being a fair weather biker...…

 

aye, lots of visible nooks and crannies on that triumph i noticed. lots to keep clean

 

Jet wash

 

never on a bike. not mine anyhoo.

 

Was being tongue in cheek - wouldn't put one near anything Italian - mamma mia

 

not if you wanna eep the laquer on.

 

Ha ha, and electrickery going where it's meant to be

 

that i can cope with. tarting and fafing aint my thing

 

With you on that, don't want to go 'too shiny'
When I get 'older' there is no way I'm getting a Harley - FFS who in their right mind is gonna enjoy polishing that!!

 

one of the lads here probably. harlys and cleaning is his thing.

 

I kind of wish I had the time - but then I'd find something better to do

 

Cracking bike

I have an air cooled 900 Thruxton which has all sorts of modifications to it. Sorely tempted by a 1200 but I need to be good.

 

I bought a Thruxton R back in 2016 - it’s a brilliant bike, the engine is a gem, feel like you’re in control and sounds amazing after you by pass the cat. Loads of extras to buy to make it different. The after sales service from Triumph has been impressive after all the re calls and warranty claims. I’ve owned it for 3 years, probably the longest I’ve owned any bike, no chance of selling, the Monster will go first..You’ll love it...enjoy.
