Hello all, I know Admiral (he kindly posted the link) & probably a few more, from my current (http://www.daytona600.org). Yes - am female. Have been riding for 6 years now. Complicated this one - but bare with me ................... Have mainly owned Triumph's since passing my test : Daytona 600 Daytona 600 (another one) Daytona 675 Gixer 750 Speed Triple Daytona 650 (current) I loved my 675, had her for a year, put over 7,000 miles on, here she was ................... Yes she was a special one off colour. Colour was Nightshade (it was an old Triumph colour, used for the original Sprint RS). She was one of the first 675's built in the UK. I had always wanted a Gixer 750 (i know very bad girl me). But had to do it, was given an offer i couldn't resisit. Put her back to a standard red colour (i still have the original blue bodywork in the garage). She was gone. My current is a Daytona 650. She was completely standard yellow, when I bought her, now she looks like this : I'm looking (if bank manager & other half will allow), to get a second bike. I really want to keep my 650, i think it will have to have another 675. If not this year, definately next. Thought i'd sign up & say hi ................. PS - round at the bar on me
Hi Scarlet and Welcome. If you are after a new one, have a look at Jack Lilley bikes as they are doing 0% on all new D675s (not the new SE though, unfortunately).
Hi Scarlet I love the colour of your old 675 and would have had one in that colour if available new. Looking forward to seeing your bike on 27th at Donington. Kev
hey scarlet welcome very cool selection of bikes in six years really like that colour nightshade i wish they did that as an option i think i would of gone for that colour. most in here are obssessed with erm common black, no imagination eh there a good bunch on here and very helpful though
Hi Scarlet & welcome. I remember you from d600.org when I was on there over 3 years ago. I had a TT600 & D600 back then. Did you use Kwacky's sportsrider or something like website too?
hiya scarlet Newbie( sort of) and welcome ur old 675 in that blue looks real nice, not quite as nice as Black mind,cos Black is the best color nice to see another lady biker on this site with an impressive list of bikes in 6yrs. what does ur other half ride?
Hi Scarlet and welcome I remember you too from the D600.org site. Must admit I still have a soft spot for the D600. Stu never really got on with it, but I really liked it. I love the british cockpit fairing flags on the D600's, they don't quite look as good on the D675 I don't think. Jean
Hi all - so many familiar names Stu - yes - Sportsbike has crashed recently. Kwacky has a new site. Fridge - come on - you know the real truth, black soaks the sun up, so hence is a bit slower (sorry couldn't resist), an sure the colour wars go on here as well Other half currently has a Daytona 955, it was sounding a bit porly (like a twin) when he went out tonight. He's had it for a good while now (28,000 miles - i think now). First loves are hard to get over, which is why I want to try and keep my baby & just add to the garage.
oh scarlet, who's been mis-guiding u on the Physics? :roll: yes black soaks up the Sun, and it stores it til needed, clever really, then at the point of Terminal Velocity, that stored Sun's energy is released to give the black 675's the xtra mph to make them the fastest! ...every knows this but some just cant bring themselves to admit it nice to c triumph's r in the family
Are you claiming to have a KERRS system fitted to your bike then Fridge!?! All I want to pint out is that Ferrari Enzos are Red and Herses are Black!!!!!
But grey is the same colour as tarmac, so us grey types have Klingon cloaking technology. No speeding tickets for me! No Sir, not me Oh and hi Scarlet Steve
Hi Scarlet. Hope you are doing well! Impressive stats (bike stats) I must admit! You will notice there is a lot of discussion around what is the best colour...as far as I'm concerned black is the OLD black and anything with red in it wins everytime.....now watch me get shot down in flmaes for that comment!
NOW..... WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE COLOUR? !!!!!!BLACK!!!!! er no RED!!!! Aghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Ra ta ta tat rat ra tat tat.........burn you heathen
as you may have noticed chickenstrip lol this girl has taste and went for BLUE and a custom blue at that
Blue does make a nice.......undercoat ......................to BLACK :evil: ha ha Ha Haaaaa aaaagghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh hmmm, yes quite...... less wine needed I think now.... where's my coat?
