Fuck off, what facts, the photo says it all. You are a fine one to speak about judgement with all of the offensive bollocks you post on here. I have no issue for the need to kill a large predator in the wrong environment for genuine reasons. It's the need to display the trophy photos that I think speaks volumes about the individual. It's the same as those cunts that kill elephants so they can post with its cut off tail. It's pathetic.

Out and about on the tiddler this morning. Did the Fowey cross loop and throughly enjoyed it. Only time I felt a bit vulnerable was joining the A390 when it’s lack of acceleration feels abit exposed. Bouncing around between 4th and 5th gear preserving momentum is fun . Who would have thought getting the most out of 11 BHP ant 40 to 60 mph could be so. Only thing that does need planning is the lack of braking compared to the other bikes. Sky tip in the distance.

This is a first I absolutly agree with every word of that.

She’s says so, but she is going through some stuff at the moment so I don’t really know. I will keep the bike around until her insurance runs out in October to give her every chance to change her mind.

Out for a last ride on the Sprint before it goes back in the healing shed. New vacuum fuel tap, new fork seals and front brake strip and clean. Down to Meva and stopped in the market on the way back. Back in the shed. To be fix d My Dailey ride for the nexts few days. Certainly a contrast to the Sprint something like 100 kg’s lighter I think.

Depends what he wants mate, the first gen Hinckley Triumph T300 series Triples can be picked up for peanuts. There was a tidy Sprint like mine sold on Ebay 4 miles from me for £440last week. I paid £510 for mine. Lots of bike for the money. They are modular as well, all the same cycle parts and tanks just the fairings that are different. Daytonas hold their money but Sprints and Trophies don't so there is lots of scope to play around. Also the 1200 motor is a straight bolt in for the 900 frame. So you can make a 1200 Sprint either by bolting in the motor or just changing the Bodywork. Hours of fun for you dad at little cost. The Legends (Bonnie Lookalike Triples) are a different matter they hold their money well but it is possible to turn any of the other models into a Legend with the right bolt on bits. Also you have the CRK Cafe racer kits for T300s. You are right though the money is in 125's but life is to short to be fecking around with them IMHO. I will do it for my brood but it's doesn't float my boat really.

It's time to vote. Sorry no @Pedro this month. Here are the candidates in no particular order. The Poll will close 23:59 31/3/2026 Aprils BOTM with go up on the 21st and the poll will start on the 27th. @Buckster Harley Davidson FLHX Street Glide, nearly in shot Wet Dream @busabeast Suzuki Hayabusa Gen 2, at the Pod coming out of the sun. @boboneleg Yamaha 250 WR?, high up in the Land of Castles and Sheep. @Saul Triumph Sprint 900 below the Sky Tip at Carludden.

It's that obvious isn't it I was talking to my mates about all the bits I am having to do to the Triumph. The feedback I got was get used to it, integral part of owning an old Triumph. Don't mind at all really, I find it interesting keeps me busy and playing bikes.

Shakedown of the Sprint continues. Got to the bottom of what I thought was a miss fire. Turns out it was a failing vacuum fuel tap. If I can get the bits should be a relatively easy fix. Also bike riding and running beautifully, real pleasure to ride. Got back today only to find I have blown a fork seal. So some good some pain in the arse. Looks like I will be stripping down the front end in the near future. Love the bike though, can see this is going to be a keeper. Bugger Love the look of it

Looks like you have found your rugby replacement.

It's the Sky Tip at Carludden. It's a sand burras a relic of the Clay industry.

It's that time of the month again. Time to get your pictures up.

I know he his a fanny but been leant both these bikes Bimota 1000 and Triumph 1200 for two weeks. Seems to be winning at life to me.

Weather is stunning off out with the lads today. Was going to take the Sprint but the Hornet won the popularity contest.
