    Came for the Speed Twin content. Stayed for the flute and opera.

    Nailed the guitar riff, loved it and the other music too. It is such a cool bike, I love that you own this because I would love to own one but it's not a bike I ever intend to buy.
    Those problems you listed - there's a few too many for my liking from a bike you've owned from new - and the idea that rotors are just "done" after 16000 is absurd, that's a joke. Glad Triumph came to the party. Loving your bike, keep the videos coming.
    I'm amazed that your dealership made a special guest appearance at the end of the video..

      That is funny, I thought that egg might have worked for the dealership. I'm still arm wrestling with Triumph over the disks, it's a work in progress;-)

    Hey Nick, thanks for the great owner’s review. I’ve only got about 2000 klms on mine but no problems, touch wood. I put a decat on mine a few months ago but didn’t get a remap as the maker’s web site said not necessary. Seems to run smoother than stock, if anything. Sounds beautiful now, not too loud but noticeably fruitier. You deserve those discs replaced under warranty, good luck. BTW, the Triumph radiator guard is worth the small $.

      Thanks for that, the radiator guard is on the list ;-)

    Hi Nick.
    Another Nick Here, I too have a Speed Twin & about an hour ago while browsing RUclips I found your first video about the day you got yours. I immediately subscribed (number 600),You are good at this video lark.
    How could your dealer not put in a warranty claim for a warped disk? In the UK the warranty is 2 years, a Disk is not a consumable , I hope Head office "explains" to your service centre that just fitting a new Brembo disk is cheaper than a lot of bad publicity .. Sorry for the long comment but i'm very drunk on Australian Red Wine....Hic.

    My bike ( kawasaki) is in workshop this week getting a new rotor front disc after 84,000 km. Shows what a rotor can do. That's the first of your vlogs I've watched but won't be the last . Very cool and the guy, well he's just a guy without a bike I guess !.😂

    For the trip meters, Trip 1 I use per tank of fuel, Trip 2 I use since the last oil change. What a lovely bike, and it's good to hear you've found the right bike for you. Great job on the 1 year review.

    Dude, several of us in the states have had the left piston fracture and take out the top end while going down the road. Mine got covered under warranty, others did not and got $8k repair bills on a 1 year old bike with 3k miles on them. All 6 bikes that I know of, it was the left piston, breaking in the same part of the piston where the top ring land meets the machined valve pocket on the face of the piston. Piece comes off, smashes the valved and spark plug, and takes out the top end. BOOM.
    I also had the warped rotor, but they said it was normal. lol
    Not sure if I will buy another Triumph... Which is a shame, as I have owned 8 or 9 or them over the past 12 years...

    • @aussiewantok
      @aussiewantok  18 дней назад +1

      Wow, I've never heard of the pistons going, that's insane
      I'm still quietly hoping the rotors will get replaced thought
      Why buy a new bike with a warranty and keep paying their mechanics to service if they don't honour their part of the deal?

      Spot on man, I was going to mention the subscription stuff in the next vid. It's going to come into the bike industry, or perhaps BMW are already onto it, heated grips will work if you subscribe, insane
