Nice bike Bex, well done.
It took me several months to get used to the Triumph, last week i realised that i'm throwing it about much more confidently, the rear tyre is wearing out a lot quicker now.
Your tyres should be well worn in with 200 miles on them i would think.

The 1st service is usually just an oil change and a general check over. Nothing much to it, I don't think. Should be done within an hour or so. When your booked in, get their 1st thing, so you have it done 1st. That way you shouldn't be waiting too long for others to be completed..

You lucky thing, I saw one of these on Saturday in Sth London, same colour as well, looked really cool, Hopefully I'm for an upgrade to a 696 in April, can't wait.

What do you think of the noise, is it ok as standard or to quiet ?

Its fairly quiet unless you're accelerating, and even then its still pretty quiet.

I'm not too bothered at the minute to be honest, I was pretty noisy on the last one and I'm quite enjoying not being obnoxiously loud wherever I go (shock horror).

No doubt I'll answer differently when I actually have the money for termis however...

Still at least on the last one people knew I was there, I already had several people cut me up and I cant help thinking noisy cans certainly help reduce that a bit.

I already want some, the guy just collected my bike and as he drove off I was thinking how good it sounded going into the distance! I never heard it being driven away before cos I was always on it,

This is the best looking pipe I've seen on a new SSS Monster

Although I reckon the 2into1 Termi off a Hypermotard might fit an 1100.

That orange one looks cool but it would better if it was a twin set up or stacked like the S2R/S4R

Ah - that's the one I was really looking for!

Totally with you there.... minus the lurid red and green decal, mind.

Isn't it great that we live in a world with such diverse tastes. I've never liked that bit of upswept exhaust going over the engine casings.... reminds me too much of an SS50!
