As some of you know I have been having trouble with my America (starting, cutting out in the wet) and I have got some great help in the tech section. I was riding home from work the other day and the bike cut out again. I pushed it off the motorway and parked it up on the side of the roundabout (off the road) and proceeded to flatten the battery trying to get it started again (sometimes it does start again, if I WD40 it enough). I had to call the wife to come and get me, charged the battery overnight and went back this morning to try again. Pulled up in the car and b*gger me some f*cker has stolen the side panel! So yet again my, already fragile, faith in human nature takes another knock. Why would anyone do something like this? I mean what would anyone, except someone with an America, want with my side panel? And how could a biker nick off another biker? Went to Triumph and they want £63 plus VAT for a new one, £63!! Jeez. Time to trawl the internet for a second hand one I spose. Anyone want to buy an 05 America in need of a little tlc?
