I got keyed!

Ok, so I finally went and lost my trumpy (Speed Triple '02 in Nuke Red
of course) ignition key.

So I ring triumph full of confidence- VIN number ready.

They only keep records for the last 3 years. truly.

So I gets told to remove my petrol filler and go and get that key
matched by a locksmith.

Any ideas to get me out of this shite- you may even include this last
bit o' "remove the petrol cap" madness?

regards
Tom

lol what about parts

good choice
are they sure that the petrol cap uses all sections of the key

on Hondas the helmet lock uses a few and the petrol cap uses the other few

take the bike to the locksmith

get the locksmith to come to you

remove the tripple clamp with lock and take that to the locksmith or the
tank if you prefer

"It's lightish Red!"

As I always say- "If a pink bike is poofy- why do all the girls want to
ride it and it's owner?"


...and then I wake up.

 

You'll need a Triumph key blank. Best get two. Only available through
Triumph.

 

Guess what? They already have a colour for lightish red. You know what it's
called?

PINK!

have you gawn down to your local cop shop, when people hand in keys, we
chuck em in a box under the counter, we find all sorts of keys, lots of bike
keys, but no owners, so we throw em out..

 

'lightish red" be buggered, Tom... a very strong and yummy P I N K
..... There was one at Canberra Motorcycle Centre (perhaps still
there....) that I fell in love with a few months ago...and dreamed
about riding one day... that lovely iridescent purply-pinky-fuchsia-ish
colour...

And then I sat on it (or tried to....) and my feet didn't touch the
ground... such is life...

Another fantasy down the drain...

betty (well it wouldn't go with
my jacket anyway <grin>)

 

I've gone into my local locksmith with the code from my 1981 Suzuki. He
cut a new key from his computer database.

 

Johnno's been having fantasies where your feet aren't touching the ground
too Betty!

 

You don't have fantasies where your feet don't touch the ground? All the
rest of us do.

Shit, shit, shit.

Well said that man! *ill look*

G-S

 

<snort> evil bastards, the lot of you! ;-D

EVERYTHING goes with black jackets. You have a black jacket of
course...?

I find the S3 about right for my 6'3". If you want an unusual litre
naked- Cagiva Raptor- it's so small and low to the ground. I wanted one
but for the life of me could not fit it.

TL1000 motor (so get it serviced at Suzuki dealer!0

Time for a new bike.

 

Yeah - ish - it's black AND red (not the nuclear variety, either....)
so it'd clash dreadfully!

Does it come in pi--- um, Newcular red??? <grin>

Had a look at a few pics and specs - Ooh, it IS nice and low, isn't it?

Thanks Tom - filing the knowledge away for future use (like, for that
misty future time when I will be allowed to ride such a bike *sigh*)

betty

 

The X Raptor is several cms taller than the standard (might help if you
still want one)

(was actually a negative for me as a shortarse, but the improved
handling sold me)

 

Boy.... you're a right dobbing bastard mate, that's it, who is your
ISP mob?

Beer mate? - no, a real one - not XXXX

PS If a person keeps <plonking> people - does that make him / her a
Plonker?
