You guys need bigger lisence plates. I can hardly read those.
They must look really really funny on sport bikes.

Dill the law here are always pulling bikes over for small plates, its a national pastime see how long you can ride with an illegal sized plate on. Arsenalfan shame on you, you are missing out on the greatest motorcycling roads in Europe, if not the world (ok I'm a bit biased)

I don't like the paintjob or all the lights, but I like the design of the rest of it. It looks a lot better than those old VW trikes from the 70's and 80's.

I wonder how many quotes we can get inside each other, trikes are for handicapped old people. present company excluded of course.

Always nice to see Triumph getting a warm reception at a HOG rally  Wait a minute, the sun's out... you did say it was in Scotland?
Sometimes it takes a whole tank full of fuel before you think straight

Nice Pictures.
Same weekend as Mutineers rally at Drymen.Re the wee note about the number plate issue. On the way to the rally the police were out in force along with the engineers. They were checking bikes over for dodgy number plates and excessive noise from the exhaust. being cynical i somehow do not see the Hardley riders falling into the clutches of our local constabulary for noisy exhausts or small number plates. Hardley owners are not exactly the Hoi polloi.

its a sellout Kidhaf and i aint got a ticket.. so no then lol. Its rare that anybody on a cruiser gets pulled for a noisy exhaust, or a small plate. We tend to not attract the same attention as the speed merchants..cant think why.
