Picked up the TT over the weekend....:thumbsup
Thanks to the owner, Brian, and the Sales Mgr., Andy, of NTS for making 7 weeks of my bike being worked on, go down smoothly.

Recap:
TT: Blew valves on way to upper Wisconsin, which subsequently locked the motor.

Brought bike into NTS for service, in lieu of this, they let me use a 2002 Daytona 955i :thumbsup until it was fixed.

So in that 7 weeks I rode the Daytona to Minnesota, Wisconsin, Kentucky, Tennessee, North Carolina and everywhere in between. :thumbsup
Notables were: intro @ Blackhawk, full day @ Putnam, lowside on Wildcat Mtn.:rolleyes, on and around Deal's Gap, and a 104mph speeding ticket (39 over).

I found myself actually looking forward to getting my bike back, but after 3000 or so miles that I put on the Daytona (FOC BTW

)
I found riding the TT painfully inadequate

.

Bike for sale!!

welcome back dude. real men ride 600s. men with small penises ride liter bikes, they're compensating.

HDTony · Oct 28, 2002

Why dont ya go trade yours in one the one you were riding? They might give ya a good deal on it now that it's used

Jack · Oct 28, 2002

That is very sweet that they let you borrow a bike while yours was being worked on. Incredible actually. How did they handle the low side.

Yeah, the Daytona is sweet.

I went down there to pick up my SV from the previous owner who had it stored there. From what I've gathered from him and a couple others, they are quite good. The service guy is supposed to be a wizard with the bandit engines.

I'll be keeping them in mind when I go shopping for the Speed Four next summer/fall. It's a haul for me, but a good dealership is worth a drive. The next closest Triumph dealership is Power Motorsports. Greg (turbospeedIII) said Nielsen's isn't a dealer fro them anymore since they didn't order any bikes last year. Oh well, their loss.

Brian, I say stick with the TT. It's a better track bike!

So far, they said "Don't worry about it" and the like. I offered to make good and replace/repair the damaged components, and still they said "Don't worry about it". So I am going with that.
It was a low speed low side, and only the lower fairing, and alt. cover were affected.....oh yeah, and grover's saddle bag:laughing(which was replaced)

Pretty lucky that thing didn't get impounded on your little speeding sware'.

That could of been a mess.

:cheers

Doctor B · Oct 28, 2002

Here's an idea. Keep the TT for the track like previously mentioned and make them a deal on the 955. Hey, you know the previous rider and the history of the bike right?:laughing

TerminatorR1 · Oct 28, 2002

Is that on 111th st. and rt 59?

Yes Chad, that's the one

VIVID1 · Oct 28, 2002

I think I will miss the Daytona

it is a very pretty bike.

Although, in the future when Brian finally gets a liter bike I will have to get one too since chasing him for the last 7 weeks was a lot of work with the F4i.

Cool. We insure them. I can just see it now, a claim coming across my fax for a damaged Daytona 955I.:evil

Kruz · Oct 28, 2002

when Brian finally gets a liter bike I will have to get one too

:rolleyes

Craig will be glad to get his demo back. He rode it this summer. I went to Road America with him and a group.

Champ91 · Oct 29, 2002

glad to hear you bike is back up and running. Also good to hear they have no problem with the miles and the minor mishap.

Anna Liter Bike??? O boy

GautamCity · Oct 29, 2002

Care to elaborate......that is a lil mozza ball you left hangin out there.

GautamCity · Oct 30, 2002

they lied to me about my bike, and they promised me some things and they never delivered. Also, they messed up with my title, and I didn't get it for 8 months after I bought my bike.
