Triumph Tiger description

Here is a great bike, recently traded in at our dealership.  It is a 2006 Triumph Tiger 955.  It is the last year of its kind, as Triumph replaced this model with the much less popular 1050 in 2007.  What made the 2006 so great was a few things which were VERY different from the 07.  First, it has the bulletproof, torquey 955 water cooled, fuel injected triple with a six speed transmission.  That's the best engine Triumph ever built.  Next, this model had the actual on road / off road chassis (dual sport) that the 2007 lacked.  It has the extra large fuel tank for extended trips off road and away from fuel stops.  Finally, it has the aluminum mag off road wheels which allow for many, many choices in dual sport tubeless tires.  It is the best of the old Tigers in one great bike.  THIS bike has a few nice accessories as well.  It has the extended windscreen, extended mirrors, spill bars, factory "competition" silencer and the quick detatch rear saddlebags.  The saddlebags work great, but they are marked up a bit from sitting in the previous owners garage for years.  The bike is in excellent shape mechanically, with no known defects in operation.  The tires, brakes, chain and sprockets are all good to go.  The engine and transmission run just as she should, so she is smooooth and powerful.  That's it.  Buy it and ride it.  Serious bidders please.  This is a NO RESERVE auction so the high bidder gets the bike.  The winner is responsible for getting it home.  Any questions, just ask, or stop by and see it for yourself.  Thanks and good luck bidding.

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.

POW! 2009 Triumph Thruxton Review

Thu, 14 May 2009

Since Picture of the Week had begun it’s unplanned hiatus several months ago, we haven’t thought much about restarting the feature. Nor have we had the time to – it’s been busy here at Motorcycle.com. However, when Pete Brissette asked us about the POW!

Watch: 2011 Speed Triple Dyno run

Tue, 05 Apr 2011

With the full factory fitted arrow system and map fitted it was time to give the Speed a run on a Dyno to see where the power is at. Over two runs the best results were as follows; Power at the crank : 130bhp & 75 ft.lbs torque Power at the gearbox : 124bhp & 72 ft.lbs torque Power at the wheel : 119bhp & 69 ft.lbs torque The bike has covered 4200 miles and is due its first proper service at 6000 so you would expect to see a reduction in power. Triumph claim on a brand new bike the Speed Triple at best puts out 135bhp and 82 ft.lbs torque at the crank with the cans fitted, effectively mine has lost 5bhp and 7ft.lbs of torque.
