Opinions wanted: What do you lads think about this bike?

Notice the tail light. It doesn't look quite right to me. Otherwise, what do you think? I'm in the hunt for my first Triumph!

Well, he's changed out the tail light assembly to eliminate some of the bulkiness

Lot of extras that he won't get the value of back in the deal - looks nice
If it were mine I'd be chopping the xtras putting it back to srock and selling seperate.
If the price is right....
if it's what you want...

Nothing wrong with the tail light. He just got rid of the Peterbilt mud flap and cleaned up the rear end. It is either a stock light or a ClearAlternative.

Looks like an extremely nice bike that has had proper care and will probably draw a lot of interest.

Something about it looks familiar, like maybe he is on this forum?

It looks sweeet. The seller has good feedback and seems reputable. Even if it goes a tad higher than book its probably a good deal with the goodies. You're lucky I'm not in Cali anymore or I'd bid against you.

Bloody beautiful bike. He has sold all the hard bag stuff but did he sell the pillion foot pegs as well? They are missing and not on the bike.

It gets the Shemp stamp of approval. If this is the bike you want, go for it!
