Drinking Triumph shit coffee. Stopped at the dealers on my way home and said "listen to this", started it up and they said "oh yeah. Do you want to leave it with us?" I said "not really because I have to get my luggage home. It's booked in for tomorrow.

Just about to a bit of therapeutic spannering, which means Sod and Murphy will probably be arriving with their laws soon!

Re: A right now thread
It only rattles until it adjusts - I noticed it did it more when I started it hot so I got it as hot as I could on the way to the dealer. It keeps dribbling water too - did it again when I was on top of a mountain enjoying the peace on Sunday - I heard it - just like you would any animal - I turned to look and there it is - having a pee. I then topped it up with 125ml of what I thought was spring water but when I checked it was summer fruit flavoured - artificial sweaters - it will smell nice when Triumph next check it. That was the first time I'd topped it up since they had it last.Bigyin wrote: Mon Aug 23, 2021 5:34 pmYou did well to get to the dealers with all that rattling it was makingTrinity765 wrote: Mon Aug 23, 2021 1:37 pm Drinking Triumph shit coffee.
