Hi all,

I've spent the greater portion of my adult life restoring and racing vintage Triumphs (currently own 4). I'm also the proud (read: obsessed) owner of a 2014 Triumph Street Triple R.

Current mods:
Puig flyscreen
Sargent seat
SC Project conic exhaust (arrow map)
R&G Sliders & case & radiator protectors
R&G Taiil tidy
NRC front indicators
Motodynamic integrated LED Tail light



I race vintage flat track - here's me on my Champion-framed 1973 T140.



Best,
Mike

Shucks! Just another day going fast and turning left.

Yeah man, that's awesome! It's like Evel Knievel meets Steve McQueen
Ha, thanks! The leathers are in the pattern of the 60's factory team and it actually does go back to Evel Knievel. Knievel was Triumph factory rider Gene Romero's (The rider that ::spoiler alert:: won the National in 1970 as seen at the end of On Any Sunday) primary race sponsor and his leathers were inspired by Knievel's. The pattern ended up getting adopted by all the Triumph factory riders (Nixon, Castro, Palmgren etc).
