94? I didn't think they even imported them yet in 94? What parts are you looking for? The 885 engine is common across the board.

Yo. I have a '95 that I just recently picked up. Glad to see some other folks with the origional! I love mine now, but it needed a little help, especially with the suspension.

For OEM stuff, www.bikebandit.com has everything. Just click Triumph -> Speed Triple -> Carbs. I have ordered a lot from them and the Triumph gear can take a while (they even say this on their page), but they havn't let me down yet.

As for aftermarket stuff, ebay occasionally has pipes and things. Mine has quite a bit of work done to it (most of which I cant take credit for). But it is set up as a track bike (pics in my members forum).

I would love to see some pics...

Here is a link to a post I made a while back about my mods. If anything in particular intrests you, I'd be more than happy to go into more detail.

I forgot to mention that the bike has also had the rev limiter mod (cut one wire and it'll rev out to the 750cc limiter).

whiplash, I will put some pics up soon as i get a chance. And share my trials and tribulations that come with this bike. thanks to all for the help so far! I am waiting for the starter to get back from rebuilt and cant wait to fire it up! The speedo and tach are discontinued and would of been $750 wow! so I will keep looking for used or try to fit a generic brand.

I think you can still pick them up on bike bandit:

http://houseofmotorcycles.bikebandit...EED+TRIPLE.asp

They do look to be expensive, but just under 600 bucks if you just need the instruments and have the housings (900 if you need everything).

Good luck working on her; she isn't too hard to work on. Getting at the spark plugs is about as hard as it gets. That dam frame tube...
