Remarkable resemblance: is my Volty a baby Triumph?

[klingon]

On the left: Suzuki Volty
On the right: Triumph Thruxton

Draw your own conclusions :cool:

[JimO]

uuuuuum ..no

[Drum]

Ha Ha. Nice one Klingon- that made me chuckle.

[TS99]

In your dreams....

[tri boy]

Good spotting Klingon.
A set of clip on's, and some small cosmetic touches, and it wouldn't look too shabby at all.
Nice budget cafe racer.:yes:

[T-Thunder13]

you have the volty ill have the triumph

[Bonez]

On the left: Suzuki Volty
On the right: Triumph Thruxton

Draw your own conclusions :cool:Anyone with a clue knows the Brits look to the Nippons for inspiration in there motocycle design :dodge:

[Babelfish]

BAAAAAAA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA thats like having a big fat loose as hippocrocopig and saying you basically got angelina jolie!!!! Never put your volty down like that mate! :drool:

[MVnut]

U mean your Volty leaks oil?.........

[skelstar]

Think your Volty is cool. Better than the Triumph in this case :rockon:

[TS99]

Think your Volty is cool.

and Hondas are not gay :sick:

[skelstar]

and Hondas are not gay :sick:

I don't get it, you want to talk about sexual preferences now?

[paturoa]

So thats where u r going to get the spare parts from for the fix up

[McJim]

I thought your volty was a bit more wriggly at the back and in need of the loving touch from my 'Persuader'!

My VTR250 resembled a Ducati Monster a bit....in the right light....

[98tls]

Sorry mate............the volty looks induced..........

[klingon]

So thats where u r going to get the spare parts from for the fix up

Sshhshhhh!!!

You're revealing my hidden agenda... eventually someone will say "that looks nothing like MY Triumph Thruxton!" and before they've wiped the spittle from their chin, I'll be in their garage with my socket set and my loot bag... :shifty:

[xwhatsit]

Hahaha... I actually quite like the look of the Volty, especially the model with silver with tan upholstry. I guess I just like that old aesthetic. Wouldn't mind a Volty rear guard, to see if it'll fit on my bike with the slow-moving caffeination I'm subjecting it to.

That Trumpy is a modern Trumpy, i.e. not a `real' one, so both bikes are of a similar vein, really -- both modern retrospective bikes drawing inspiration from 1960s road bikes. The Volty just looks a little more squashed -- I bet yours looks even more so!! :D

[Mr. Peanut]

I think the Volty looks nicer.

[Devil]

I think the Volty looks nicer.

I think you and Skelstar need to put your glasses on :P

Maybe it'd be a bit clearer if you put them next to each other in real life! hah

[klingon]

...The Volty just looks a little more squashed -- I bet yours looks even more so!! :D

Does not! Here's a pic of mine...

[klingon]

Actually, here's a real genuine pic of my Volty - this is all I took home from the side of the road :bye:

Crikey - that bad? you ok?

[klingon]

Crikey - that bad? you ok?

Yeah I'm pretty ok (cracked ribs, a little concussion). And the bike's not really that bad either. I'm going to buy back the "wreck" from the insurers and fix it up... to look just like a Trumpy! :D

[sels1]

... to look just like a Trumpy! :D

A worthwhile goal ! (and heal well, I know cracked ribs hurt for ages)

[xwhatsit]

Oh cool! You really want to make it look like a Trumpy? I know where to get some mint clip-ons... and bar-end mirrors, and short little single-seats...

Café Volty!! Can buy bits in pairs for my bike too :D:D

[klingon]

My bike comes home on Saturday! :D woohoo!
Then I'll make a parts list, then trumpy owners better start looking out for me sneaking around your bike with my spanner poised...
