  1. Not long to go now till the weather improves, the rain will wash the salt off and the shopping for milk extends over a few hundred miles. Good morning
  2. Happy birthday Ian mate!
  3. I'll have to check tomorrow to be certain but knowing the original owner as I do, it's doubtful.
  4. I'll have a look see if I can replace them tomorrow I've no idea on size, but the engine paint is stressing me out. A quick Google and the street can be a nightmare to remove the nuts apparently - poor triumph design..
  5. Thanks mate, I'm going to try & get under the engine paint tomorrow see what's going on. In regards to the copper assembly compound, would replacing them first make sense, or is that unnecessary?
  6. On preparing my motorcycle for winter I noticed the paint & metal deterioration on the underside. I bought my 2016 bike earlier this year, never ridden in the rain, been exposed to salts, or used an aggressive cleaner. Not sure on the previous owner, but other than this area, it's pristine. Could anyone help me with this & maybe offer some advice on what it is, how to resolve it please? Edit: it's been soaked in ACF50 hence the oily shine . .
  7. Oh now I see, you mean cars approaching up from behind.. You have a point, but you'll never stop a smidsy.
  8. If your approaching someone they'll see your headlight first & highly doubtful they'll see any reflective jacket etc, IMHO brighter LEDs & I mean stupidly bright will make a difference, everything else is (again IMHO) pointless.
  9. I dropped mine on the u turn, lesson learned & never repeated. Is what it is, you'll fly the 2nd
  10. If a copper stops you for wearing one, just give him/her a cuddle and offer them support for being a prick, the ride off leaving them to ponder there existence.
  11. Street triple is 36mm - stop bringing up the speed ffs
