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

it fits you perfectly - very nice. Will we see maxx in GA in the spring?
How are his highway manners? As a streetfighter I fear you'll run rings around us. It's striking that some of the basic stats: wheelbase, weight, are almost the same as the original 650 twins from 40 years ago - some things are hard to improve on.

I'm thinking of going with the anodized master cylinders when it needs a brake fluid change. They're the new items in the Triumph accessory catalog. The Arrows should give your bike a nice sound(especially for what they cost!).

I wish is was. I'm sort of afraid to test ride one. Can't afford two yet. To get one I would have to give Sadie the boot. I got the feeling that once I test rode one I would have to get it. Then it would be so long Sadie helllo Emma!

shhhhh. she can hear you, ya know.
the StripleR is incredibly different than the America, and incredibly different than Frankie too.
thing is, though, every time i get back on Blue, this deep sigh escapes from my body, sort of like "oh. it is good to be home."
unfortunately, i have only ridden Blue once since i got maxx. she was rife with electrical issues -- the phantom kind -- and was hospitalized for a spell.
in this cold rainy moment, my thought is that what ever winter riding i do, will most likely be on Blue with a touch of maxx thrown in for good measure.
right now both boy and girl are resting under-cover in the garage; looking an awful lot like Halloween ghosts.
working in the biting cold rain all day really made me long for springsummerfall. then i realized, it's not even calendar winter yet.
however, we are a mere 10 days shy of solstice and bit by bit the sun will come back to us.
