I had a mate that ran a bike shop in Slough... the number of customers that took their brand new bike out of the showroom and slid it straight down the road 'cos the tyres were all covered in that shiny stuff was unbelievable... noooo:

It is an awesome machine! cloud9:
And buying a bike out here is nothing like being in the UK... it is a seriously complex project!
There are no Triumph dealers and Triumph can't be arsed to ship one directly...
The 696 is ?10,500
The Ducati dealer wouldn't touch my XTX and is in Nicosia
The nice Yamaha dealer in Pafos discounted the FZ6 and accepted the XTX in P/X so it was a no brainer...
It is an awesome machine - I just need to get rid of the bloody CAT but an eliminator is available for ?50 so that isn't a problem...

It weights under 300Kg with me on it, 95BHP, 0-60 in 3.2 seconds, 0-100 mph in 7.8 seconds and tops out just shy of 150mph.... eeek:

I suspect the Fazer is the same...
1st gear took me to 60mph in about 3 seconds.
2nd gear took me to 95 mph in about 3 seconds more.
Unfortunately I ran out of open space to explore more, but 0-100mph in under 7 seconds and only needing 2 gears wasn't to bad.

This morning I received the new oil pipe for the Triumph. I cut it to size, bent it as required and then started to bolt it to the rocker boxes.
The bastard thread on one of the chromed nuts, at this point, decide to strip itself cussing:

TMR has Chromed Nuts
BM has a Chrome Dome
Where will it all end this one upbikeship?
