Oh Dear. Having collected the Twin from Stafford, and riding it back to Essex, I have to say I was not 'loving' it. Persevered, but after 5 weeks I decided it wasn't for me, and I sold it (for the same price I paid for it). What went wrong? I found the riding position a tad too forward; the heat fro...

I'm in Essex, but I wouldn't pay anything to get it sorted - too easy to do it yourself!

Yeah. I love the Tex too. Not once have I ridden it without a huge, stupid smile breaking out on my face! :D :D :D The handling I always felt was spot on, and have on a number of occasions ground the underside of the footpegs... :? :? And oh, that torque, and acceleration... Awesome :o :o :o But sad...

Not sure if this is the correct location to post this, but I have been looking around for hints and tips on how to disable/remove the DataTool Alarm easily. :?: I am not a lover of alarms - believing an immobiliser and quality chain works just as well - and there are so many reports of batteries dra...

Welcome Champy :thumbup: Nidge of this parish has a Speed Twin (as well as an old T160). Really rates it. Hi!

Only 88 years to go :p

Show us some pics of your Slabby!

Who do you race with CRMC or BHR?

Yeah, I like thinking ahead...

Race with CRMC, BHR, Camathius Cup and (when possible, but not this year) Chimay and Gedinne road races and Spa.

Yup, that's the one. It really is in stunning condition for 36 year old bike!

Hi all! Mew to this forum as I collect my 2109 Speed Twin on 15th July - can't wait! :banana-wrench: Also am a member of the Triumph Explorer 1200 forum, which I found extremely friendly and very helpful! Still have a 2012 Explorer which unfortunately had a major gearbox problem. Can't get parts unt...
