Bike for Sale - I've Ordered a New One!!
Re: Bike for Sale - I've Ordered a New One!!
Oh I should add, your bike is a cracker, and truth be told, if you were local to me I'd probably be interested, but your not, and I'm sick and tired travelling to see bikes.

Re: Bike for Sale - I've Ordered a New One!!
Thanks for your feedback guys.
I know that I'll be accepting less than 2300 for it. But that's okay. Horses for courses I guess. Something is only worth what someone is prepared to pay.... but I know how much was put into it (well over a grand more). Pricing is difficult....spoke to two dealers who said they'd retail it at 2500 - 2600 given history, extras but more importantly paperwork.
I wait with baited breath!
Derek.... many Thanks. That was my starter book... The next one is much larger! Ha!
Flintock....prepare for a socially awkward trouser moment when you see it!

Re: Bike for Sale - I've Ordered a New One!!
I was surprised how sporty the Exp felt when I took one out a few months ago. But the engine is the main feature..just pulls from nothing! A bit like my 'steamer',but in a more 'manic' way. In a way,Yamaha have complimented it by releasing their own. Shows how good the Triumph triple is! Hope it gives you 'miles of smiles' (thumbs)

Hey Threepot
Yeah....it's a big bike but felt almost like a race bike when on it. I couldn't believe how nimble it was.
I agree completely....the triple engine has always been Triumph's "ace card". For Yamaha to imitate it is quite a compliment!
