Used to be called the Points cover on the vintage Meriden Triumphs but now known as the ACG.

What ACG stands for (in relation to Triumph), I have no idea.

Mate of mine with a Thruxton ordered a bunch of parts and had them delivered to me. I then DHL to him which took 3 days. Works out a little more but it got there.

I have a Postbox Courier address in the UK and use that. 

As you say, works out a little more expensive but the purchases are hand delivered!

I have not ridding the Triumphs yet, especially not the T designation motors .... how torquey is that 1200T?

When looking at buying the Harley, there was a 2016 900 Triumph Speedmaster I had my eye on, but when I went to look at the bike at the dealers (Non Triumph Dealers), there was just so much rust and the bike looked tatty. Been on sale since forever and they did not want to budge on the price at all, so I moved on....my old 2008 HD looks brand new compared to that Speedmaster.

I have however popped my head in at the Triumph dealership in CT as their bikes are really appealing to me!

Plenty of torque on that motor.

Will take it out over the weekend and ride it in "Sport" mode.

 

If you do pop into Triumph CT, have a chat with Mike Romeo.

Stop it!

I know it's not blue and yellow, but I'd "settle" for that :lol:

Just received confirmation that the Meerkat X-pipe I've ordered from Aus has been shipped.

This will replace a 3kg Catalytic Converter and no ECU re-map will be necessary.
