This has been on display in my living room since i have owned it.  I recently took it out for run & ride and am very impressed with it's operation and sound!  I work mostly with old Honda's and after running this and riding it, i understand the love people have with Triumph!  Unbelievable sound and pure enjoyment to ride!  There are a few paint nicks on front fender and rear fender that appear to have been caused by shipping at some point after more recent paint.  Tried to show in close ups of fenders.  Hagerty Valuations: Concours $20k, Excellent $16k, Good 12k, and Fair 8K.   This bike is better than Good condition considering resto and engine/trans work.  It runs excellent.  Will need $1000 PayPal upon winning auction.  Balance by wire within 3 days.  Free local examination and pick up in Scottsdale Az..  Buyer to arrange shipping if needed.  Will assist with shipping/drop off to your carrier but will not pack/crate it.  May deliver near to AZ for consideration.  Have a look at the pics and ask if there is a question.

New: Venhill 888 fast-action twistgrips

Fri, 01 Mar 2013

CONTROL specialist Venhill has launched its new 888 range of bike-specific fast action twistgrips.  Supplied complete with the company's top of the range Featherlight cables, the kits are designed for a straightforward replacement of the factory-fitted equipment.  Bike-specific kits are now available for the Honda CBR600F, Kawasaki ZX-6R/ZX-10R, Suzuki GSX-R600/750, Triumph 675 Daytona and Yamaha R1/R6, among others, with prices from £105. Here's Venhill's description of the new product: "Manufactured with a robust CNC machined alloy body, the 888 fast action twistgrip provides a choice of two settings and is supplied with two rotors so that riders can select the throttle action that best suits the riding conditions.  Settings can be changed swiftly by undoing the two set screws securing the throttle body and changing the rotor. On the fastest setting there is 80° of rotation, (taking up 36mm of the cable), which is typically 45% faster than 'standard' throttles.
