Whyyyyy must you take multiple days to post said pictures? You're driving everyone that wants to know what bike you have nuts! Including myself. :D

So yeah, it's a Triumph :) Hopefully he's joined us in the Street Triple club :D

Well he just left the street triple club last year.

..He's old. Old people move slow as hell..see also: Wilks.

Now if you'll excuse me, I need to find a good hiding place... :)

Just for that I might have to cut in front of you and fart! :twisted:

It won't have much effect, I'll just close my shield and watch all the dust go around me. :mrgreen:
 
Rode it! I know, it's pretty similar to the other day, but this time there were mountains involved. :)

Ha ha ha ha ha dusty fart. Hahaha
 
Put my cleaned up budget exhaust on the bike yesterday...rode it for 30 miles...decided I'm through with toying with exhausts in 600cc i4s...and put my stock pipe back on today...lol. I just may be able to make some money off the pipe.
 
Took off the front fender extender, was actually rubbing on the front tyre. Also removed my RiderScan for refitting with a more suitable mount.
 
Washed it, cleaned it, adjusted the chain.

I felt a bit evil for doing it besides a bunch of people adjusting their pushbikes, though :D
 
Oil and filter change. New front brake pads.

Never done brake pads before so was fun. The Haynes manual says it's a 3 spanner job "suitable for competent DIY mechanic" but I'd have to say it was a simple job and easier than that.

I also took the fairing off to gain access to the de-accelerator adjustment. The fairing was surprising easy. I really wish the sad robot in my engine was not covered by the fairing.

Yeah I was surprised the first time how easy brakes were as well. I think the hardest time I had with changing the brakes was getting the rear caliper in place with the rear axle.

screw you guys! lol
Did mine yesterday... Took me four hours to get the bloody piston back in! Well, actually it took me four hours to take it all off, get the tools out, find something to put it on, find something to stop the caliper getting scratched etc etc, including having lunch and going for a half an hour "test ride" to make sure it was working... But still.. FOUR HOURS! FML I am not going to be a mechanic lol. In my defence, I didnt have a C-clamp to get the thing in place like you should so I was mainly jumping on it...
 
Installed a USB outlet to charge the GPS.
