Great nostalgic bikes. Triumph bikes have great racing history. That TT600 I had was a beast for a 600cc. Put out over 120hp. On track days I had no problem keeping up with the 750cc bikes. The 1000cc bikes were fast on the straight sections but I could always catch back up in the curves.
Have you ridden one yet ? They have a very sport bike type of sitting position.

Just once. I have to slow down on my spending for a little bit. I just bought my GT350 and a 2016 f150. I just dumped 20k into my Shelby. But the bike will be next.

New girl friend and she's into cars. But I think she likes my 1956 F100 better then me. She keeps offering to buy the Thruxton for my B-day but I won't allow her too.

This is the NEAREST and DEAREST to my heart and the only Chevrolet in the family.
On my 33 Birthday my grandfather gave me the title to his 1969 Chevelle drag car. The first time it made it's way down the track I was 6 months old. I have been driving it and updating it the past couple years, but it is OFFICIALLY my car now.
