Thats the one, wicked fast and only $13000.00 I don't get, it the kids have all the neat stuff and ALL I get is bills.

I don't know many kids that can make a living on a scooter though!

Triumph speed triple, voted by MC mag as one of top ten best buys under l0,000 dollars. lWill quarter in high 10's and is pure sportsbike but with a little higher handle bar position. Check it out on Triumph.com.

Thought I d ck site I mentioned and, although it is a very interesting site, the correct one is Triumph Motorcycles

JayD · 22nd January 2008, 01:26 PM

I think Triumph, Has lost its way....with its look..Are they reliable now...LOL...do you still have to carry a oil pan around with you?..LOL.

They look nothing like the T120 or T140...But I am biased..I like my Harley's..LOL.

I had a mate how owned a swag of trumpets, He use to pull up in my driveway and put a pan strait under his trumpy,Before he started it as he was going...He would fill his oil tank up..LOL..It used to crack me up every time I seen him do it.

I remember once on a run there was police parked on the side of the highway outside of Buladelah,They let me pass but started waving my mate in,..I could see what was going on in my review..This copper waving him in and the headlight falls of it's mounts and it just hanging by it's wires

,I lost it I couldn't stop laughting for miles..The copper just shook his head in discust and waved him on..LOL..LOL.

I have a lot of respect for Triumphs a good Machine.

I had a 70 tri bonne JayD. You had to wear one of those hard hats with 2 beercans and a hose but instead run oil straight to the crankcase while riding.

New Triumph only same as old in name. Brit billionair bought name and has been doing pretty good with it. I ve had 3 , a 98,200l,2005 and put 12k on each and had no probs out side of a deer (long legged rat) trying to end both of our lives.

Harley is often the object of jokes around here, often referred to as Hardly Movinson. Most guys bring a tow line with them and I don t blame. Just kidding , they are a beautiful ride and if I ever grow up (I m just 59) I might consider buying one of them, then I too can ride by other inferior bikes and refuse to wave at them.

JayD · 22nd January 2008, 02:40 PM

Wasn't the triple a thunderbird..???They certainly went hard...I remember all that crap and arogance..LOL.about the tow rope..I blew up a gear box in the middle of the Hay plains here,Thats one of our desert with a Hwy thru it on my 74 Sporty,I was stuck for a while until I realised I could still ride it in top gear it sounded like rocks in a tin can until you got it cruising..got me home..Here's a beer for the old day's

..LOL.

newguy18 · 22nd January 2008, 07:11 PM

treevet · 22nd January 2008, 07:43 PM

Jay Leno, talk show host, has a jet powered crotch rocket. Probably peak out at about 300 mph just before it vaporized. A bit costly, Newguy, but if you don't get that one there will be somebody out there faster than you (Jay).

newguy18 · 22nd January 2008, 08:05 PM

Therrin · 22nd January 2008, 09:18 PM

A Honda 90 yellow trailbike.

newguy18 · 22nd January 2008, 09:20 PM

Here's to the old days

I sold this bike to raise the funds to start my own business.

I miss him heaps.

Its a funny thing I don't like Harleys much but the lines on that machine look really good to me, very sleek and smooth.

I had a Matchless 350 when I was in Africa in the mid 80's, have no pics but here is an identical bike off the net...

man I loved riding that machine...sooo much
