i just stole a speed triple off a guy on e-bay...well not literally, he had it up with no reserve and i got it for 2,000 u.s....its orange and looks amazing...as well as runs great. my other bike is a 97 Yamaha royal star 1300 a big boy cruiser..not my kind of bike but thats a different kind of riding all together...ill keep the Yamaha but the speed triple will be the main bike from hear on out...anyway does anyone have any suggestions as to replacing the front fork springs i.e. recommended manufactuers??....i looked at works and will probably go with them unless i hear otherwise...i will post pics soon cuz i already started some minor mods to fancy up the bike...i may be American and Italian blooded but i love this British bike!

md,
take a look at race tech. they have everything you need and the blokes that work there are very clever. the best thing you can do for your "proper" speed triple is try and find a sebring 3:1 exhaust, add a dynojet kit and a k&n........ bob's your uncle.

The 95 is a great bike in my opinion. That is a steal, I bought mine this spring for 4,000 in NY. Its definately a classic and unique bike with little flaws for a new model. Too bad I just put mine down... wanna give me some parts? Ha, ride safe and enjoy
