    More Idle Issues

    :gp: Wow, that blows. I'm glad I don't have that problem (yet). I do notice a little hesitation from idle that can cause some very jerky starts, but nothing I can't live with right now. I read and printed TOMO's fix in case mine starts doing it too. Anyway, I feel for you. Scott

    Chugging Rocket

    Yikes! This is shocking. I hope mine doesn't start this. I've only 1700 miles on the bike. I have noticed a little idle wobble on start up, noticed a flat area in the throttle on acceleration, and I have had a few times where it took three attempts to start the bike. I haven't had any problems...

    2007 Triumph's

    'Busa Killer How about going after the hyabusa with a 1300-1600 cc superbike? I'm thinking Daytona 1350 cc triple. Or they could just put a fairing on the rocket, lighten up the bike a bit (as much as possible) and tweek the engine and suspension.

    pick mine up at noon!

    Dink is alive and well, and runs an awesome shop! He does sell the new triumphs, as well as Ducati and Royal Enfield. He spends alot of time making sure his son has well tuned bikes for the race circuit (they have prepped two 675's so far). They still will sell you an old one as well; Whatever...

    Where is 1st Gear

    Mine did (does) the same thing. When I talked to the guys at D&D cycles (30 years working on english bikes) they told me it was normal for shaft drive bikes (Japanese as well) to be a little grumpy going into 1st when you are stopped. When my bike goes into first it shifts (clunks?) very...

    Freaky Deal

    That's them. The left rear of the engine block I have two hoses that are unconnected and pointing down. The are always coated with oil.

    Freaky Deal

    hoses I found two small hoses open, pointing down underneath the motor on the lower left. When a touched them, my hand was covered with oil. I checked the oil level and it was fine. It may be an oil blow-by hose like on my diesel engine on the sail boat, but I have not spent a lot of time...

    trans trouble

    I had a similiar problem. Twice when I was simultaneously downshifting and braking I heard a god awful noise and felt a sickening vibration. It only happened twice, at about 300 miles and when I took it into the dealer they didn't know what was up but felt like it was a shaft drive engagement...

    Best Triumph for beginning rider?

    Smileys It's gotta make you smile. If you put him on a bike he doesn't want, he won't enjoy it as much. I know many 21 y/olds around here that are on hyabusas and GSXRs, so count your blessings. At around 900ccs and solid performance, I like the speedmaster. Plus, it is soooo cool! Believe me...
