The new 675 :D road bike

riddled with issues it was mate triumph should have never let it outta the factory how it was fecked it of for a new blade can't wait still should have it in a week and a half

keeping the 675 race bike though as that had john trigger do the engine an my mates at kais do the suspension so that thing is deffo pure sex hahaha

mate of mine got one of these at the same time an hasnt had a problem mind you he's not had the first service done yet >.< thats when i had mine back to the dealer 4 times an not got it more than a mile away without sumet else bein wrong bloody dangerous to sum of the things its all sorted now - the quickshifter which is being done this week but role on the blade honda powah an reliability bout time I started getting used to it ready for when I race the 1000's on the roads


shame as I know how good these can be with how good the race bike is but oh well haha


role on the blade excited = understatement

 

shame mate, that's absolutely stunning. unusual it's had so many problens. modern triumphs are generally very reliable even compared to the japs.

 

yep deffo mate shame really but onwards and upwards we cant afford any cock ups for this years TT as I wont be hangin around lol so last thing I want is one of the 5 things that happened with it hapenin over there + i love the blades haha and its what Ill be racing so might as well get used to them ( not sayin any more bout the problems as I know what the countrys like now for suin an sh*t like that haha + be interesting to see what mcn have to say really will



how's ur trumpet goin mate do still love triumphs just not this one and the way Triumph handled it when the problems arose and that a a Triumph trained technician missed problems major problems on it 4 times and left it to me to go risk my neck ffs rather than getting it right.

everyone I've spoke to who knows my riding etc reckon anyone else without the riding ability an experience I got behind me they would have been off proper close stuff lolz shame really as u buy new for peice of mind loolz

haha bloody excited for the blade though its really really really special the one Im getting love it haha cant wait to show u all the pictures

man that 675 looks well nice, shame about those issues you had going with it mate, how's the new blade that you got doing ?

 

not picked it up yet mate get it next weekend to say Im not sleeping is an understatement lol pretty much bouncing up and down on the spot haha really is a rare blade to what Im getting apparently only 20 worldwide so buzzing Ill bang sum piccies up when I pick her up funny thing is every one of our bikes have always ran arrow pipes but love the look of the standard exhaust on the blade so gonna leave it on for a bit


finally got all the issues sorted on the 675 sure flies the engines make these bike but I still hate the suspension on it haha + dont trust it reliability wise by the time I would have spent the money to get it how I wanted it I was a grand short of the blade got a cracking deal to

used to k-tech and wp on the race bike so the standard stuff on the 675 seems shite lol crashes over everything and the dampening characteristics are pants

once Ive swapped the bikes over Ill bang a review up of the 675 and everything that happened with it and how shoddy Triumph were in dealing with life threatening issues lol




Thanks,

Tom
