Good & Bad ...
Hi. I've had my Speed Triple for a year, from new. I've never owned a Triumph or a Triple before. I've had a 2-stroke, a single cylinder, a V-Twin & four cylinder bikes ... all had quirks, good & bad. The Triumph has been the best bike, by far, I've ever owned. I toured for 10 days a month after buying it & it was fantastic. I put the Ventura bike rack system on which also worked & fitted perfectly.
Last weekend, I got the bike out (after maybe a month lay-up) & the battery was completely dead. It would not recharge at all. I've bought a new battery & Optimiser ... which in hindsight I should have done earlier. I just never expected the battery to be unrecoverable. I guess that's the way batteries are these days. Has anyone else experienced this with the battery ... or did I get a dud?
So, that's my only bad thing. Still can't fault the bike.
