Well, after 6 months deliberation its here,
and in true boxertrix tradition its not a flat twin..

it was origionaly a toss up between a Tiger 800 and Beemer F800gs, others got a look in, VFR 800, New beemer R1200rs, F800r, even a Yam Tracer/MT09.

It had to be good on my short commute, be fun at the weekends, cope with the odd trackday, tour very occasionally, and be lighter than my sprint Rs.

Choosing was becoming tricky, in the end it came down to engine configuration, it had to be a triple ( sorry ) so test riding the Yam and Tiger was next.

Then I remembered what I got into biking for, it was fun, so i bought one of these...

fun, oh yes....


cheers

Steve

looks really nice

Lovely bike and great choice. Looks particularly well in those colours.

That'll be a hoot!

Al

Very nice. I think about these too. I notice that this post is your 666th. Is that the number of your beast? Sorry.

Very nice Steve, so when do we get to see it in the metal?

Steve

Very nice,

The triples at the TT sounded just so good ...

thanks for the comments guys..and girl..

Steve ( f90x....too many steve`s in this joint) 666 post.. ..( hope that`s a good omen) go and test ride one..I defy you not to buy one..its lovely!
ridden back to back with the MT09, it quickly becomes apparent why the Triumph costs more.

Steve, (Boxered) hope to meet up with you and your Bro in Hawes

Al, check out the factory rim tape!...awesome..

Do it ... I am already booked for next year and ferry tickets are already selling out.
Took a friend last year after his cancer scare and he said it was the best holiday of his life, bit embarrassing as his wife was in the room

Atmosphere and locals are greta and then the racing just tops it off

And the triumph would sound epic over the Mountain on full chat !

Why am I always the last to find out you've changed your bike ...again

Looks very nice Stevie boy and can't wait to try it out

Catch up next weekend. Off to France tomorrow

Bugger, I thought you were in France at the moment...killing clay things

I was looking forward to a beer at the weekend ...

Have a great trip, take piccy`s......can you fit tabs in your panniers?

Very nice, Steve.

I'm sure lots of photos will be forthcoming of the weekend's trip to Flash - will do a warts'n'all thread in Ride Reports on our return next week.

It's what the "R" stands for!

Aye - there are a few people backed themselves into a corner on rim-tape.... Can't tell me that doesn't look good!

Sorry chap. Saw this response after I got back but no room for tabs I'm afraid (and they are not that much cheaper anyway!).

Alas can't catch up this weekend either as we have another selection shoot near Cheddar so away Sat/Sun.

Start saving your pennies for next years Flash Tour and see you in July
