Hello! :weird:

I live a nice distance from you for the running in of bike engines, you can do a nice easy trip one way, and give her a few berries going home the long way :innocent:

Cool bike Indy!

I have the Triumph 'Off-Road' silencers, the shop thought they had put them on, but it turns out they didn't, so they said they'd swap them over when ever I bring my bike in next.

[YellowDog]

Indy mate, many congrats on the new ride.

You don't hang about do you!

Look forward to seeing it in the not too distant future.

BTW: Was this from Holeshot or AMPS?

The colour looks great.

[gijoe1313]

Wait, I hear a John Williams score somewhere ... :whistle:

Nice bike & I want one in my garage. But why have they put a black motor in the Scrambler? Looks great while it's clean I suppose.

They did it 07 onwards I think, which is kind of sad as the polished motor looks nice!

[Mr Merde]

Nice bike.

So where do you strap the rifle to?

Yep nice looker, even the crash bars look good.

Very very nice sound. Welcome to Triumph :ride:

[Kiwi Graham]

Nice one buddy, put me down in the 'like the colour' camp too.
Prob a little early in its life to check out the neutral burn out potential eh :niceone:

[vifferman]

Nice bike, Sir! :niceone:

Apart from maybe the <s>plank'o'wood</s> seat...

[Bass]

And another starts his journey to the dark side.

(good call BTW)

[Indiana_Jones]

Well that seat wasn't so bad in the 1970s (maybe that's why they haven't changed it).

And I suspect that it wont get sat on too much. The pegs may take some wear though!

I would hate to make that beautiful paintwork dirty.

[Indiana_Jones]

Well no complaints about the seat yet

-Indy

[Crisis management]

Ok, now the big question Indy....is this a fashion purchase or are we seeing you on adventure rides soon?


Nice bike too! :love:

[Pumba]

Nice one Indy, somthing a bit different, I like, but is that triumph green I see on the tank:whistle:

Ask Big Dave & Trustme, they can shed some light on that question for you :)

What an evil, snarling, snorting (farting, coughing) machine that is!
You probably didn't notice over all the noise, but I followed you most of the length of Onewa Road this morning (not too close - had to preserve my hearing).
IS it tuned for the "off-road" zorsts? Didn't sound like it... :confused:

lol Evil?

well I doubt it's been tuned or rejetted, it's bit of a topic going by some of the fourms on the net.

Some say you should, some say don't need to etc.

Some people get back firing even they they open up, I only get it when I roll off, plus it sounds awesome lol

-Indy

[vifferman]

lol Evil?
So.... you haven't traveled behind your bike then? :confused:

At one stage, I was almost sure you were looking for a car or bus (or pedestrian?) to jump - you were standing on the pegs, getting ready. I could see the Steve McQueenish thoughts dribbling out of your helmet, as you imagined the excited applause from the hapless people trapped in their cagemobiles, or waiting to be herded onto the omnibus...


But no. :no:
Perhaps you were just stretching your legs because the seat was as bad as it looks? :confused:

[trustme]

The seats fine,
Endless fun = tors on a gravel road, spinning it up out of corners, it is bad for your health because you end up going way too fast.
Truth is we all want to be Steve McQueen for a day, unless you are too young to know who the hell he was.:2thumbsup

The seat is fine :) I was just looking ahead to see if there was a car turning right onto one of the side streets, you know how bad it can be :angry2:

Harvey Mushman would have kicked his butt. Pity they never rode together.

[tri boy]

Enjoy it Indy.;)
Trustme will fill you in on tyres/mods etc.
They're strong and reliable.
The seat is comfy enough and heaps of good ideas on both adv and new bonneville site.

cr race carbs emit a throb that women seem tuned in too.Its like a love song.

Seriously they are great mod and improve performance.Assume your is not injected and 865 or have they injected the scrambler as well.

[NordieBoy]

The 900 Scrambler is injected...
Not sure of others.

[sels1]

Yeh mines the last of the carby bonnevilles.The cr carbs run same milage as far as im aware although mine had just started to free up motorwise as I put them on.Noticeable performance increase with instant throttle responce.

New Bonneville in the US is a great place for bling bits.The carbs were 450USD from memory which I didnt think was to bad.They will also pretune them to the specs of mods that you have done.I removed the rt side airbox cover and there is a slide restrictor that can be pulled out that opens the carb intakes after filter but before inlet rubbers.This adds noticable power for free at the cost of some induction noise.I also added K&N and removed airbox intake rubber at same time.The carbs came set for those mods and race pipes and required no alterations to run well on 91 or 95 octaine but higher octaine doesnt work well at all.

[sels1]

Yeah they are generally a good bunch. There are monthly rides and 6 monthly rallies too.

You can join RAT (free) on the Triumph website, just have your bikes VIN number handy, and then the factory will send you nice glossy Triumph magazines etc
Note you have to update your membership each Dec or you dont get the mag.
