2010 street triple r
First service on fri 28th.
Looks like its just checks on the usual stuff brakes,clutch chain e.t.c. the only impotant thing being the oil and filter change.
Must mention checking coolant level after my small leak.
I like this one in the manual "from 500 to 1000 mls engine speed can begradually increased to the rev limit forshort periods"

TRIUMPH STREET TRIPLE 675
Well its 70 degrees in the UK today and it would be great to get out for a ride if a little warm.
I'm loaded with a cold and feel crap.
Been cleaning the bike just for something to do also i stripped down the rear end just to take a look at a diy job for a tail tidy.
Looks to be a difficult job a lot of plastic and metal if i come up with an idea ill post on here.
The only tail tidys ive seen so far are R&G and ERmax if you come across any others please comment cheers.

EXHAUST STREET TRIPLE
One thing to note if your thinking of purchasing a triumph street triple r is that the header pipes will tarnish within hours of you getting and riding it.
This initially started to annoy me and after reading certain forums e.t.c. i decided to attempt to buff them up,attempt being the word. All interested was lost after 10 Min's and a cut knuckle.
3 days on and I'm quite liking the tarnished look blends with the engine providing the dreaded rust doesn't set in.
F1 Monaco's, about to start so later people.
