Now I Don't Much Care For Fighters But ....

Post by RedStormV »

I'd give this one a home!

Forgive any crappiness to pictures - taken on mobile.

TL1000S as seen at Rufforth today - 02/08/08

'R' Reg for sale at £2150 ono - 8800 ish miles on clock.

With Ohlins forks and shocker, CF hugger & mudguard, polished Triumph top yokes.

Optional set of matching leathers £80

Now I don't do fighters really, they don't 'float my boat' and I know it's not a Storm, but at least it's a V-Twin :)
Whether it's because of the 'in yer face' 'Aaarrrgh where's me sunglasses' powder coated colour scheme or because, you couldn't build it for the money, I don't know, but I like it, a lot :D

Not that you can see him in the pictures posted, but my mate, who bought a '65 BSA Thunderbolt last year to 'slow' himself down, was busy writing the guys number down and salivating as I took the pictures.
He's always liked the TL but never owned one.

Hope he does ring bank manager on Monday and purchase it, then I can play too.

Enough to bring out the 'hooligan' in anyone.

Now that's an oxymoron if ever there was one :lol: Is it owned by the Colourblind Bikers Club chairman or something?
Two bikes, still only four cylinders!

Is that meant to be bullet holes in it? Why am I getting flashbacks to the special edition Citroen 2cv that was in that james bond film.

Lets see how many old farts remember that one.
