The only RV's Nancy and I have.



I am ordering some new brackets to hold the saddle bags on both bikes and $500.00+ upgrades to my dual front disk brake system.
(Don't spread it around but I have my eye on a $500.00 helmet also)

The Triumph looks good. What is hiding behind it?

They are certainly good looking.
Did you have any trouble teaching the Limey bikes to run on the right side of the road?

Only thing I hate is they have to have the left side shift thing.
All my old Trumph's had the 'proper' right side shifter.
I plan to build a crossover kit to fix that mistake.


Incase one wonders what is on the Tank.

The only thing I ever dared get on in my youthful two-wheeler days! Weird; I do Cessna's, Freightliners, horses and SCUBA at night in the middle of the Pacific ocean alone...motorcycles however simply exceed my head-on-a-swivel comfort level Norton Commando

The last time I was on a motorcycle was in the late 70's. IF I were to get another one it would have to be a H-D pie wagon. (This doddering old fool is getting too old for 2 wheels.)

They look goofy. A pie wagon with a air cooled VW motor would work good.
