My new bike,

A bit different to riding the firestorm, a lot more twitchy! Shocked

Are there any speed triple owners on here?

Joe

(p.s. if anyone is in the market for a cheap firestorm give me a pm)

Haha, standard, Girlfriend time has now been halfed (at least!)

I've only bought it to sell on again, it was a Cat D after 400 miles but was fully repaired and has only done 9,600 odd to date. She's in good condition and has the nice two bros pipe (plus perfect originals). How much do you reckon? Very Happy

Joe

(Oh it's an 05 model)

Not sure yet, I'm gonna keep it until the end of June probably. Open to offers though.

Yup, 2500. My only gripe is with the bars. They feel a little too swept back for me but this might just be because I've been riding the Firestorm with clipons for the past year. I'm thinking of getting some un-braced renthals but am unsure on colour, what say you?

Cheers for the comments,

Joe

P.s. Your Zed is the tits.

Yep, wasn't in the market for one (or another bike all together) but couldn't say no at that price.

The Cat D will knock it down. I'd say £4,000 maximum.

For sure it will, that would still be £1500 for doing naff all. I may get 4,500 if I hold out, plus I'm selling it in June hopefully the weather will tempt wallets a little more. Also, it's only one 9,600 miles.

Either way I very much doubt I won't make money on it (unless I throw it down the road!)

Girlfriends dads mate, they're both coppers and have known each other for 20+ years. Considering he was a copper I was supprised at the size of the number plate (single row and pretty small) and the noisey can on it (two brothers). The plate had to go as it was too small for MOT and I'm not keen on one row plates either. Pipes nice though!

At 2500 I didn't even bother to haggle, would have been a bit of a cheek. Renthal ultra low are what I am thinking and I'm already on the look out for a colour coded screen thingy. I'm tempted by some bar end mirrors or just loosing mine all together!

Joe
