free money to everyone!!!!!!!!!!!!

Not really, but i got your attention eh?
As i stated in the "Introduce yourself" section, im on the lookout for a Triple 1050. Are there any things i should be looking for apart from the obvious paperwork and service details. I would prefer the Blue color but would also consider black.
Am i correct in thinking that the blue color is '05 or earlier? If so i will be looking for an 05 reg. in 06..I also would like to get one with an Arrow 'zorst, are these legal? Thanx in advanvce.

+1 ha ha ha, once you are in though, you might not ever leave.

Hi Anomoly, I've got an Arrow which was fitted to the S3 by the Triumph dealer when I bought the bike new, he said they are not road legal but most dealers will pass the bike through an MOT test. Hope this helps.

Just make sure its not originally a white 1050 simply sprayed blue....who cares if its legal or not just be hardcore to the max and two fingers up at the law!!! Cos they sure stick two fingers up at us with their speed cameras hidden in horse boxes!!!

Pheeeeeeeeeeeeee yeeeeeeeew!!!!! I was beggining to think i was a figbiscuit of my own imagination....... And then someone answered my post. I nearly registered at the funny farm down t'road.
Thanx 4 the reply peeps, is the Arrow v loud? Only askin coz my Buell wouldve annoyed the neighbours of a mornin, so i didnt force myself upon em- we get enuff bad publicity as it is from the Dip Sheeits on U tube.
Has anyone got a Trip ii can borrow to fill the gap in my garage where the Buell was, thereby stopping me feeling sorry 4 myself?????? ( joke)

Hi mate and welcome, my 06 was neon blue so it was still a colour option for that year also, as for the arrow they are not overly loud, i have the mivv low mount gp on mine and it is very very loud with the baffles removed, went for a blast with a mate on his 07 s3 he has the triumph race cans & tors tune & he said he could not hear his running because mine was too loud, good luck with your choices

The Arrow GP style pipe looks the dogs, I test rode a 1050 from Youles with one fitted, sounds brilliant, but I decided it was too loud for the neighbours and opted for the Triumph race cans, sound brill and dont attract the same attention from plod. , but they are still not road legal:
