Picked up the new bike today, I don't think that I have even opened the throttle half way yet and I've nearly crapped my pants
It has the Arrow low boy slip on but even with the baffle out its quiet which will be nice for long journeys. The induction noise is very addictive though and is actually louder than the exhaust.
Just need to get another bar end mirror and I'll be happy,
Here are some terrible pictures

Nice, you can have your Triple gang, still not as big, as our SV gang though.
BTW You'll open it up within the first week, when you first hit 100-105mph you'll let go of the throttle. But hitting that speed on the bike for the first time was a fun experience. Remember to do it on a 'private road'
Edit: I'm going to go for a quick blast to Cambridge and back.

Nice!
Selling DVDs on ebay atm to fund parts for the bike. Should be enough for a set of steel clutch plates, oil and filter. Then I'll see what else I can sell to get some bar ends and an air filter.
It's a good time to do it as we are sorting through everything after moving in.

I think his is the previous model with the round head lights.
Any one know where I can get these mirrors?
I gave away a set of these when I dealt my Cruiser away, Think I got them from Amazon of all places, Gimme a mo I'll go see.
Edit.
I'd have to track back through untold Purchases to find them but I'm sure it was Amazon. Search for "motorbike wing mirrors" on Amazon & you get loads similar come up.

They're like slightly different Rizoma Circuit 959? http://www.rizoma.com/universal/mirrors/circuit959/en
There's a search button on your orders page

Thanks,
Triumph sell them separately rather than a pair so that won't be a problem, they are £85 each though.

Cheers but the ones I had weren't identical to the ones he posted so I thought it best if he just went there himself & picked a set he likes.

Holy ****
The factory is in my town & my neighbour works there so if you can get a part number I can ask him to see if there's any cheaper option. Just had the Honda out the shed & give it a little once over, plug out & cleaned, General Lube & look over, Kicked up 3rd kick once I was done so well pleased with that & it's sitting out there all ready for a little run out once my mate has been & gone. Think I'll have an hour or so on the Honda then come back walk the dog & then take the Fazer out for a bezz, I plan on doing the country roads on the way to Donny then dropping in for a look see whilst I have a fag then a good blast through the lanes on the way home later.
World Superbikes on TV Live now !!!
Don't forget teh World Super bikes is on Quest today Live, To nice a day to sit in & I plan on heading up there later & tomorrow but I'll watch it when in having a Tea

Drugs and ride works well
I've been taking tablets for 4 weeks now, built them up in my system and they haven't worked yet
I'm going to keep it for a few more weeks and see if it causes me anymore back problems, I've stayed off the bike since Wednesday and my back has been fine, it doesn't have brembo brakes, it has nissin brakes and kayaba suspension.
If that's correct, read it online lol
