I know from buying british cars that the year of your Triumph is based on the year the bike was titled in the states. The neck plate on my 02 BA says my bike was built 10-01, before the big fire. I understand that only 100 bikes were made before the fire, and mine was. Before I start altering it is there any reason not to, like value?

Bolt-on mods and accessories are OK , just be sure to keep all the originals .

It really depends on if you plan to keep the bike or not. I am keeping mine forever, so all my stock pieces go to finance new aftermarket ones.


Always remember to be yourself. Unless you suck. Then pretend to be someone else.
