Yep, she does. And it seems to be gettin' worse about the last 10K miles or so.

And when I read Pat's recent thread about his replacing his with those roller-bearings I said to myself that when it gets cool enough down there in Scottsdale AZ for me to venture down there and take my baby to the Triumph dealer for that long overdue valve-adjustment, I'm gonna have 'em replace those head bearings too!

(...I figure by November it MIGHT cool down to about 80 degrees in the low desert by then, and so I'm just gonna keep ridin' her around UP HERE at altitude until that time...I just will NEVER figure out how people down there in "The Valley of the Sun" can take those triple-digit temps all Summer!)


Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)
