Whats the best tyres and exhaust for my Triumph :I can't believe it's not butter!

No idea about tyres but this site should give you some ideas on the exhaust side of things. . . .

Standard tyres are fine, exhaust is sorted!!!

The Mods no don't be daft they'd never do anything like that

Sorry to hijack your thread for a sec coull, but what's the 675 like for comfort, I'm 6 foot but it looks just so damn tiny, I'm between that and the 600rr when I pass test, but looking more toward the 675.

That's a good point, I haven't seen any aftermarket exhausts for it cept their own race cans

Are you mad?

Quite possibly Big Kneed Al (master of the emergency stop & "stand up" comedian)

I been on a 125 for almost a year now, I aint gonna go backwards, just cause a bike can scream like a banshee, don't mean you have to use it

You want a nice TT600 to start off on you do!!

Am I getting a whiff of someone selling one? :I can't believe it's not butter!

I was always put off the older triumphs, people said they handled like mud, I have been looking at the TT's and the 595's, the 595 has the better styling imo, been keeping an eye open on the 400's as well, if I came across a 400 cbr with the 07 front end, I'd prolly kill for it

If you're looking at the T595 then make sure you get a later 99 model. They had a revised 4th gear which can be a weak point.

I woudlnt get the 675 as a first bike. Learn to walk before you can run.

Oh and who put the first post up and why??

Sorry Graeme but we don't have the cabability to pretend to be someone else. Either someone else has been using your machine or a machine that your are still logged into or you have been drinking today!

I have ridden Big Kneed Al (master of the emergency stop & "stand up" comedian)'s TT and it handled very well. Plush but precise too. Loads of go in it for an allrounder.

Some would say sports, I don't think it focussed enough for that class, but a bloody good bike and as a first 600, defo worth a look.

I would go with the third option myself

Must have been the guys at work, there always taking the piss out of me for tyres and exhaust changes.

I was lent a TT when my CBR was in for work and I was amazed at how it just "worked". Normally I wobble around a bit on a new bike but the TT felt just like a CBR. I was pleseantly suprised.

Your only limp wristed if you push back apparently!! So my marine brother told me anyway.

I was told by a Marine in the back of a Chinook that he sleeps with his back to the bulkhead and his mouth shut

Well..i think thats what he said over the roar of the engines..he may have been chatting me up for all i know...i was covered in "Skin so Soft" at the time!!
