So.
What kind of crappy materials Triumph is using these days?
There I was, happy as a cricket (hun?) returning from the Isle, thinking about the pint waiting for me at the Ace Cafe when PLUNK! A small piece of debris hit my right side with a sound of a thousand dishes hitting the floor. Stopped at the service station only to find there was a hole in me engine.



Am I supposed to accept the fact that a piece of metal the size of a common brick hitting my bike at mere 140 Km/h will do that kind of damage?

I thought cool-factor alone would shield me against these kind of freak accidents. And cars. And bugs. And pesky kids with footballs.

All I can say is that I feel greatly outraged. I will contact Triumph in order to force them to build their engines with something stronger. Like unobtainium!

I also hereby declare myself "master of the cam cover with small 6mm hole". Now bow. Respect.

:-D
