I am an all weather rider and the Triumph is my commuter to go back and forth to work, I don't own a car or truck. Last Monday I went to start her up to go to work. She started but died right away, we did this 3 times before I realized I had better find a different way to work. I looked over at my partners 1983 Honda Shadow and strapped my work stuff down on it. As always it fired right up and settled into a nice smooth idle. As I was mounting the Shadow to go I thought about how I had to have $2,500.00 worth of warrenty work done to the Triumph before I had her a year and how I had to tear apart the ignition switch and resolder the wires back on to the switch. Now I had to push the wires back into the fuse holder when I got home from work Monday. Back to the threat, as I was driving out the garage on the Shadow I looked back at the Triumph and said "One more ****** problem and I'm trading you in on a new Honda!"
