i have been building this bike for about 12 months its almost there.
2007 triumph speed triple. 1050cc
Recently my nephew smashed his Triumph speed triple. It was classed as written off and rebuildable. Insurance company's paid him out, which he bought a new Triumph and he's given me his 2007 triumph speed triple, which I will rebuild into a street fighter with nos.but i have a few bills to pay first before i can start here are some pix.
a set of radiator and oil cool gaurds for my triumph s3 there sweet a guy in QLD makes them..
just a update my wife got me the headlight iv have been drooling over for a while now for xmass what do you guys think i have to work out how to mount it yet i put it on with zip tires to see how it looks.
farking piss of big farking time i use the last of my money to get my gsxr 1000 08 front wheel for my speed. I took it out of the box and it looked in really good nick. I was happy as pig in sh.t.
I could smell fresh paint, the person who sent the wheel from the US had sprayed the wheel with a can of black paint and sprayed straight over the dirt and crap that was on there. So I used paint stripper to strip the paint right off, I planned to polish the rim up like a mirror. When I used the paint stripper I found under the paint, that one of the spokes had been snapped at the centre and had been welded and bogged over to make it look like it wasn't there. Further inspection of the rim, where the spokes meet the rim, have cracks and fractures. This is farked big time.
What a way to end a year.
Watto has come up with a wheel for me and 320mm rotors.
and here is a update its looking sweet.
just a up date now im having trouble lic it now .
