Just incase anyone missed it. Makes me proud to be British even if the fairings are made abroad Sent from my iPhone
Very nice. Is it only the fairings ian? Thought quite a lot of the triumph parts were made abroad now?
the output shaft oil seals are made in willy wonkas chocolate factory at 445 pm on a Friday afternoon !
Dislike the styling tbh..... Bike is good for the money but imo not as good looking as the old one :/
It's the underseat exhaust looks that drew me to mine... It might be feckin tiny for a big bloke, but its good fun... And you can wring its neck a bit and have some fun rather than having the intimidation of a litre bike... But I'm a bit of a pussy!
which bits of yours are from the UK lee ? besides the tax disc holder ? or is that from Taiwan too :whistle:
fooooking gorgeous bikes these. ..real world power , real world handling ..absolultey superb. This is defo the supersport bike to have if your in the market for that range. looks better and has more VFM that that minigale from ducati...
Only the finest german engineering on mine dave. And some of it on the floor, the road near work, the m6, m62, etc bit of a daft comment seeing as its not a british bike you senile fucker!
70 in first? Why give it any more gears "Power everywhere in the rev range...feels better on the road"...yep sounds like a Triumph Triple What's a 'PANNIGLY'??? Great review thanks for posting...I think the paint shop is in the Far East...the bikes are assembled at Hinckley, Leics. and designed in the UK. More importantly the factory is British owned by a British bloke...unlike Mini (Krauts), Jaguar Land Rover (Indians), Aston Martin (Yanks), Bentley & Rolls-Royce (sunbed Nickers again) Be proper proud that were actually building something and it's bloody good for once
i beg your fucking pardon !!! grrrr grrrrr :devilish::rage::rage: while this "thing" is rusting away and melting plastic fairings, the S1k will be moving technology forward even further in 2014....lol
I m thinking of my license Dave, @ no point on my R6 have i said on a road i need more power.... The s1r will get me in alot of trouble
