Hi all,
Haven't posted in while but in between drinks I managed to buy a Triumph Speed Triple. It is nice and I like it, simple :drool:. It seems to go like stink and is nice in the corners whilst being very comfortable for commuting (bar the handle bars that angle in a little too much for my wrists).
Anyway, I recall reading a magazine where their long term test 07 Speed Triple developed a ticking from the engine. I believe that my bike may also be 'ticking' (valve area is where the sound is eminating from) but I can't recall what it was diagnosed to be. I am probably being antsy here and nothing is wrong but I would like to know if it is a prob or if anyone knows of Speed Trip issues.
Cheers,
Lance
