USA site now has Tbird in the 'create my own triumph' confiurator

[dazco]

And the prices for the most part on accessories are close to what i found when creating my triumph on the UK site then converting the pounds to dollars. But the BB kit is showing $170 more. BUT, and i didn't know this, it comes with hot cams too ! that makes it a crazy good deal. Hot cams for the speedy by thunderbike are that much alone. Nice ! This bike really is shaping up to be a very fair deal both in the base price and the accessories. (wish i could install that kit myself :sad

Well when i worked out the price from BP to ZAR the price was a lot better than what I also expected but still too steep for me to be able to afford right now :cash:

 

[dazco]

I'm in the same boat. It's just that i'm willing to ruin myself to have this thing. :ya2:

With a T-Bird you could tow a trailer like HD's and Wings do. Then you wouldn't need a car! You can sell it and pay for the T-Bird. See, I have it all figured out. :y114:

 

[dazco]

Didn't figure rain and cold into the equasion did'ju Carl? Don't forget....when it comes to cold/wet weather riding, i'm a girly man. :ya2:

 

[DaveM]

I think I am with him

 

[CarlS]

Y'all gotta become hardcore!

I admire a man who will admit that he's a bit of a girly man when it comes to bad weather.
Cold can be miserable. Wet can be miserable, but cold and wet is beyond miserable.
While I'm at it I'll admit that I'm a girly man too when it comes to cold and wet
In this part of Canada cold and wet is really COLD and WET!!!!

 

[CarlS]

I don't do cold and wet either. I will do one or the other, but not both.

 

[DaveM]

All the years when I had no other transport but the bike the weather was never a factor in riding. Now I have choices and I like hot and dry :y114: :y114:

 

[CarlS]

You have gotten soft and spoiled! :y114:

 

[dazco]

I'm with Dave on this one....HOT and dry.....dry as in not only no rain, but no humidity. I live near the desert so i ride out there often. I love it hot and dry as a bone. One of my fav rides so far was going out to barstow on a 105 degree day. And the speedy was put thru the paces at 90 MPH steady from the 138 to barstow. Pretty darn good for a air cooled bike, eh. i nwas quite impressed with it. It may be a sad day monday because i may be selling it. I love that bike and will miss it no matter how good the Tbird is.

 

[CarlS]

I wish you the best with your sale. I know you will miss that bike.

 

[dazco]

Tanks. It's not by any means a sure thing, but he's trying. (wifely negotiations) If he does i decided to reserve a Tbird. But best case scenario i'll be bikeless at least a month.

 

[CarlS]

I would go nuts not being able to ride for a month!!

 

[dazco]

Yeah, but that first ride is gonna be a doozy !

 

[DaveM]

Update us on how your sale is going with your bike

 

[CarlS]

Dale, I am excited for you! :y114:
