Ride outs, reviews, project builds, road rage, walk arounds. Motovlogging on my 2003 Triumph Sprint ST 955i in and around Northampton. Occasional trips around the UK, general hooliganism and other craziness involving bikes and bikers!
Great review and clear speech and without silly music,it's summer 2024,I've had my first ever tiger the 2001 955i for 5 months great bike but a couple of niggles,so next upgrade is either to a 1050 or 1050 sport,love the look of the sport with single sided swing arm.

Hi loved your video just gone the sane. My stator cover is really hot . But it's making wering noise too. Is that ok . It's an upgraded Electrex stator and rectifier. Sitting at 12. 7 v and running about 14.3 v on Idle. Thanks Dave

You'll find if you keep turning the fuel cap it should eventually click to stop it coming undone, but don't over do the clicks in closing it or you won't get it undone, lol, I normally just use two clicks and its never come off without me undoing the fuel cap.

Thank you for the most accurate review of this bike. I noticed a lot of the reviews for this bike are fairly old. I recently completed my basic motorcycle class, and this will be my first riding season ever. As an American, Harley was my first choice, but I was on a budget and decided to go an Indian dealer that also stocks Triumph. I gave the salesman an idea of what I wanted, and he walked me to the back of the showroom where my 2016 Triumph Thunderbird LT had set for a year and a half. The minute I sat on it, I fell in love, the first five minutes on the highway it had to be mine. It's sad this bike never received the admiration it deserved. I have received a lot of compliments from Harley and other riders in general of just how unique my bike is. As a novice rider, I never felt I lost control of this bike at low speeds, and the center of gravity is balanced. Triumph did an amazing job with this bike and I hope one day it makes a Triumphet return to the American market.

I recommend next time to simply have a clear image of their registrate plate + their face (with their phones out) and to move on. This way you can safely get home and do the reporting online. If there needs to be a conversation, I'd also advise to stay on your bike and to get beside the vehicle you're talking to. Unlike your strategy here which was to put the canter stand in the middle of a road (which later lead to obstruction of the highway when it comes to the law). At the end of the day, I do applaud you for standing up against these twats and their phones, but please keep yourself safe and out of the law's way at the same time 🙏

I added the Remus Stainless Exhaust to mine. 102.5 horsepower and 120 lb-ft of torque. One can remove the exhaust cap which yields an authoritative but not obnoxious sound. I understand the guys buying Harley because of their network support here in the USA. I'm lucky to have one of the largest Triumph dealers 10 miles from me. Here are the dyno results in Newton meters of torque as well as horsepower and ft-lb measurements we use here in the states. It'll easily get to 130 mph and torque is abundant throughout the rpm range. Ride safe! kzread.info/dash/bejne/hZmZyaigd9yfqaw.html

Ah. Be respectful. A bike is a bike. It's better than a first class walk any day. I owned a Honda Mbx50SD, a CG125 an XL185, a GPZ500s a Yzf600r thundercat and now a VFR800. We all start from humble beginnings. And to be honest I've ridden a YBR 125 myself. They are a great laugh to ride on. Good with fuel. Reliable. And yes they aren't fast. But don't diss it. Its a reliable little bike. Get back on one and if your a bigger bike rider, you'll see what I mean. Perfect for the first timers and nearly impossible to blow up. Unlike the sportier 125s out there.
