Triumph 650 Bonneville fly by

Dedicated to roadrash998 coz he did me one :-D thanks RR :-)

This is me and my mate over the moors, We stopped off and I did a fly by or two, the road is inclined and very bumpy with a hump at the bridge I did not get it out of second gear, longer road next time :-)
Manoftorque rides a Harley Fatboy
mine is a 1972 Triumph T120R 650cc.
Over the last few month I have done a bit of work on her and she is running real nice :-)
Now to do some miles!

Hi John Apart from the bike, which sounds just wunnerful I love your Yorkshire homour Hardly Ableson. My usual is Massey Tractorson. The "I remember when it was all fields".. was a cracker as well Ride safe and keep em coming as they (whoever THEY are) say you can`t have too much of a good thing.

Cheers notwocdivad

Its getting warmer soon be out again!!

Oh that sound! Music to my ears.

All the work you have done is paying big dividends.

On a different note, mine makes the exact same noise going into first gear! (At 0:40)

Hi dogtiredd, she don't sound bad that's my chicken wire and fibre glass baffles :-) and seeing there is a crack in the head ,it don't go too bad. going to change it soon, I gas flowed it too.

It always grates into first a good hard kick sorts it out ;-D

I have since boiled the plates and it's a lot better.

I liked your "Hardly-Ableson" line!  I call 'em "Hoggily-Fergusons" sometimes for their agricultural-implement qualities,.Although I m.forced to admit that I worked in H-D dealerships and independent H-D shops several times after the demise of the old Triumph, they were never my cup of tea. I rode Sportsters, including one FAST 74" stroker (sold it before it could blow up on me!) derided as "half a Harley" even though I could blow the Big Twins in the weeds. Limey Iron is more fun to ride.
