Is there a rat pack in okc or a simular group of triumph riders? I dont belive we have a triumph dealer ship anymore.

thanks,

rabbi,

Call Performance Cycle in Bethany. 405-787-4688.

Ask for info on RAT. They have moved to a new location, still on NW 39th Expressway. This is their new number.

They have a ride coming up, going to Mount Scott in Lawton.

I just found out myself. Haven't ridden with them yet.

Look fwd to it soon.

New to forum. Live in Edmond. I bought a 2006 T100 Bonneville 4 weeks ago at Performance. Got back to my shop & oil was runing out all over underneath. Thought I had bought an old Triumphm instead. Being a 40 year Chevy mechanic I found the leak & fixed it myself. I work at a Dealership & know what it is like to take something new back for service. But this time I would have been on the wrong side. The oil line at the backof the head has a banjo fitting. The copper washer had a piece of plastic caught in with it. Simple fix just hard to locate.
I need to take it back for the 500 mile service. I have 1400 miles on it now. I changed oil & filter at 450 miles myself.
I read about the local RAT group but haven't met any of them yet. They were in the last RAT magazine my co-worker gets.
I have about 4 groups I can ride with already. But it would be good to get together with just Triumph riders. I work with a guy that has a Speedmaster. We ride together. We went to Mt. Scott 2 weeks ago. A good break-in run.
What is it the sexual predators do? WSMIP? We should meet in person. Something like that. Maybe get together & ride to ?????

The Performance RAT pack just went on a ride this weekend to Haikey Creek in Broken Arrow for a classic bike "ride-in". The trip to Mt Scott was replaced by this ride.

If you'd like to get on the mailing list send me a PM and I'll send you the email address. It might be listed on the Triumph website.
There's also another Triumph club called BLHOT. You can see their website at http://members.cox.net/blhot1/.
Ride safe,
Rich

Rich: That was a great ride to Tulsa wasn't it! Lots of nice bikes and people. Did your Speedy get good mileage on the trip? My Bonnie got over 50, and my ST got 59! Easy riding is easy on the gas. The BLHOT website is www.blhot.org . The website for Performance Cycles is www.performancecycleokc.com. get on the site, and there's info about the RAT PACK. See ya, Tom.

Rich: Are you going to do the Branson Rat Raid in August? A group of us are going to trailer up on Friday. Tom.

Tom, I usually check in at the Twin forum and just found your post here. Yes, I'm going to the Branson Rally. I'll be riding up. Maybe a few of us can ride up together. I plan on taking 66 to Tulsa then 412 into Arkansas then north to Branson. I've been this route a couple times and it's good roads and very scenic.

Rich: you've got mail. Tom

I live in edmond, right around the corner form 357bob actually, I joined the RAT at the dealership, but haven't gone to any meetings. I like to ride with an eclectic mix of motorbikes though. Our usual crowd consist of Triumphs, HD's, Hondas, Yamahas, BMW's, Ducati's, even a Moto Guzzi. Any and all are welcome to ride with us. Get ahold of me via th forum, or erikmustride@yahoo.com and see if we are riding this week.
