I finally got a chance to take my friend Bill's Triumph cafe racer for a spin. Very cool bike!

  • Great video DP as usual, very enjoyable, thanks for sharing mate !!

  • @madwelshaber Thanks a lot. It's a great bike, and a fun ride!

  • G'day mate. There's been a lot of love poured into that bike - nice work. It took me back a while seeing you switch to reserve there - my old XJ had a fuel lever, which I thought was pretty cool at the time. Glad you could still ride in December - the countryside out your way looks awesome. Thanks for sharing your ride, what a great sound. Cheers.

  • @TKTex1 It's amazing that I caught that successful switch to reserve on video. And on a strange bike, no less. It was one of the few times that I have managed to find the lever and accomplish that change-over before sputtering to a stop!

    Weather-wise, if not for work I could be riding today. It's supposed to reach over 60 degrees. We've had an unusually mild winter ... so far :)

  • only thing i would change is the mirrors..toss some bar ends on..would look a lot sleeker.

  • @incrediblekicks  I agree, and so does the owner. If it were mine (I wish!), I would also try to fit a headlight cowl. I think that would complete the look.

  • @seekinsoul You should go for it. It would be a fun, and probably not all that expensive project. It would also make for an interesting video series. Should you decide to come out of retirement, that is. :)

  • @dprider02 Actually, I have been thinking about that :) It would be perfect for that.

  • @MAG315 Very cool bike. A buddy of mine has one that he's offered to sell to me numerous times. Tempting, but I have successfully resisted ... so far!

  • @seekinsoul Glad you enjoyed. Yeah, you were better off leaving the 550 more or less stock for the long distance stuff. Maybe your 250 could be a candidate for cafe treatment?
