Triumph Speed Triple description

2001 Triumph Speed Triple, Bug-eyed Speedie! - There's no pretense with this motorbike. What you see is what you get. It's look is muscular and stripped for action. Twin headlights up front. Black-finished three-cylinder engine. Flat handlebars. And a seriously bad attitude. The Speed Triple is the perfect example of sport motorcycling at its most raw and basic. Its heart is Triumph's legendary 955cc, 12-valve fuel-injected engine, kicking out a fiery 108bhp, and tuned for arm-wrenching torque. The motor is bolted to a rigid tubular aluminium frame that also holds top-quality suspension and a state-of-the-art single-sided swing-arm. It's easy to understand why the Speed Triple is worldwide one of the most popular models in Triumph's range. It offers pure, unadulterated performance, with a combination of thrilling acceleration, agile handling and superbly powerful brakes. Complementing the bike's aggressive shape this year are two new colors: Neon Blue and Nuclear Red. Both are bold, vivid, almost shocking. Just like the sensational Speed Triple itself.

Filling a void with an RD350LC

Mon, 29 Jul 2013

Last winter I managed to fill a void in my life when I stumbled on a very reasonably priced Yamaha RD350LC.  It was a tad scruffy, had the wrong exhausts but most importantly it was blue and white with all numbers matching.  I had the usual euphoria when the deal was done but I underestimated how much pleasure this particular purchase would continue to deliver another eight months down the line. The difference with this old bike is, instead of just taking it for the occasional ride I was talked into doing a full nut and bolt restoration.  Having never taking a bike apart completely before, initially it was quite daunting but I soon found the RD is easy to work on so it turned into a truly satisfying experience.  I’ve had some help from LC enthusiasts with the rebuild, however, the stripping, sourcing and organising was a total labour of love.  And call me sad but it has made me bond with this bike like no other which only adds to the feel good factor.  The bike cost £1800 and I’ve spent around £1000 but I reckon my mint Elsie is now worth a fair bit more.   I fancy rejuvenating a Fizzy  next time but there’s lots of other cheap 70’s and 80’s winter projects  out there so why not have a go yourself?
