So I rode to work today. Luckily I had to go to one of my furthest locations so it was just over 200 miles round trip. This was the second stage of break in per the instructions Carlos sent me. Ill head down to drain the oil as soon as I type this up but I did want to provide an update.

Ive got that idle nice and sorted so now I need to learn how to get this thing to start (on a cold morning) without it sounding like a cannon blast.

The bike feels great and sounds awesome...still!
No leaking, no weeping, no seeping. I don't know where it came form but its all staying in the crankcase as it should :thumb up:

She accelerates like a bat outta hell and having that TTP (Triumph Twin Power) igniter sure is nice. No more bouncing off the redline. Thing is Im actually scared to try and get it to the redline.

Another nicety is that when you crack the throttle the MPH seem to go up as fast as the RPM (not literally but damn that needle moves).

And last but not least.... I was getting right at 40MPG. Yup... 40 miles per gallon. Thats better than what I was getting before all these mods. Go figure.
