Mike you crack me up.....got a gremlin bell & seems to work pretty good....maybe that's the ringing I heard when I last went out for a ride....

Ron, you got a good point.

Now mind you, I have confidence that ol' Black Beauty will make the trip fine....but in true boy scout fashion it does make sense to be prepared as much as one is able to. I don't think that the Triumph brand scooters are crafted poorly at all. To the contrary I have seen plenty of "HD" brand bikes that seem to be so popular suffer more issues on the roads. And find that my BA runs relatively trouble free for the most part....
But $hite does happen & Murphy can sneak up when ya least expect it.
