My Daytona 765 Moto 2 arrived

Lovely:
Pitty i'm such a lanky git and don't fit on such a thing without looking like a chimp.
She is very clean Sir. bet your itching to get out.

My goodness, what a purdy bike. Plus you get a free slice of orange to go with your Campari.

Have fun (report please..)

Liking the plate!

Looks good, any mods planned?

cheered me up the fact my lovely Aprilia went two days in row, whatever next

nice Moto2 Triumph, some classy looking parts on it, and I like the reg no

I am reg plate 'OCD'.

No mods planned. This (to me) is the sort of bike that should be kept original.

Yes, it is a tighter fit than our 'full size' bikes, but it seems light and sweet handling although awaiting good weather for proper enjoyment.

Very nice exhaust roar; I'm surprised it's not quieter. It must run very close to just being legal, and that suits me fine. One inconsistency though, Triumph has boasted the quality light carbon parts and weight reduction here and there, and then they go and put a damn lead acid battery in it . Go figure! Most would expect, as did I, that it would come standard with lithium. I even purchased a Li-lo Optimate in advance.

A reasonable afternoon in West Mids tomorrow, so I'll set it on a path to Worcester.

Nice looking bike

Chris.

It occurred to me today that I'm in my eighth decade.

Born 1957, so I was alive in the fifties, and the sixties, seventies, eighties, nineties, noughties, twenty tens and now twenties.

I suppose it cheered me up....
Wonder if I'll get a ninth?

Same for me (1952) but I'll not be boasting about it!!

Met up with some friends for lunch at the Bike shed mcc, Shoreditch. Nice food and bikes. Worth a visit if you’re around that area.
