Brand new tyres and I've only had it a week

 

[IC3]

Its alright @Clov!s, just shows you're a mature safe rider mate.

 

[MowyTone]

It's nice of you to put new tyres on for the next owner

 

[BigRazer93]

How you finding the bike clovis since putting the exhaust on? What tyres did you go for?

Only while I scrub them in, I need to get some new leather trousers if I'm going to be leaning it over, can't be doing that in jeans!

Much the same but more annoying now how loud it is tyres were new when I picked the bike up, rosso supercorsas are fitted now.

Absolutely love this bike. 2 stroke madness.

When I look at that bike, ONE thing comes to my mind.

 

[Nomisf]

Not strictly mine, but a loaner from Triumph while the tiger is serviced. May well be mine before the end of the month though, bit of a love affair going on!

 

[One]

Is it the Thruxton?

 

[Diddums]

Thruxton R. Absolutely stunning machine.

 

[IC3]

There's one locally, I see it quite often. They look classy

 

[The_Abyss]

They're beautiful. Just not quite enough sound to them.

Pretty sure that's an easy task to fix

 

[whyscotty]

Picked her up today

 

[Diddums]

Looks ace, enjoy

The boxer engine does it for me in the R9T, just the fact it sticks out like that. Something different than what you usually see in retro bikes.

Indeed it is.

I have honestly never fallen in love so hard with a bike, it looks fantastic, goes faster than it has any right to, and has sublimely flattering handling. Although, it does lure you into some suspect behavior, I have never ridden much other than commuters and adventure bikes, and even I was hanging off it round the M25->M11 slip this morning (despite the £2,000 excess on the triumph loan bike policy )
