I'm booked, ready, annoyed to all high hell! I need a weekend on the bike and to drink beer with someone who bitches more than me! I really need some time away from toyota right now.

On a second note, I'm not able to bring the '72 tiger down unless I trailer it.

CHILL!

Trailer a 72 Triumph? Think positively! It'll make it...well, you've got at the least a 50/50 chance, eh?

Now, I see a lot of hd's on trailers, but not so many Triumphs.

David, I am thinking positive! I took it out for the maiden run two weeks ago after checking everything i could think to check and see to check. I made it about 200 yards from my house when it promptly died while under throttle. It won't start but it does pop through the exhaust when i kick it now.

Besides, Jen doesn't want to drive down so she will be on her kawasaki ninja zx6-636. In other words, a back killer. She runs it at louden when whe have the extra money and time which has'nt been for a few years thanks to the econmomy.

are you still running points in the 72? sounds like the plate slipped or a set loosened
stuck advance cam?

The ignition was changed to electronic before dan passed away. Withou much bike mechanical experience, I felt that the timing is off. I have no idea on how to check it though. I haven't had time to read the service manual yet.

I always bring the sprint, The tr6 was for Jen to ride down. I love the '95 speed triples, There is one up here by me that I want. It is the lucifer Orange but the guy won't sell it to me yet.

You'll know my bike from the loud pipes that are on it.
