I've been putting off having a couple of recalls done on the bike for a while now. Today I finally got them done. They also did a software update on the bike and cleared my service overdue light for me.
They had a special event going on today at the dealership also. They served breakfast and lunch, had a sidewalk sale and had loads of bikes available for demo rides.
I rode a Speed Triple 1200RR and a Trident 660.

Several years ago, I told myself no more clip-ons. I bought a 2012 Tiger Explorer back then. Today I have the 1200RR, Daytona Moto2, Thruxton RS Ton Up and just got a Street Triple Moto2. So much for no more clip-ons. I'm 65, originally from Boston, now living just outside of Tucson. Great channel Scott!

Well, well Triumph Lover you must have racing in your blood. I'm glad to hear that you are still riding. You've got a few years on me. I'm 58. I hadn't thought much about it, but without making any adjustments to the ergonomics of the bike and the lever angle and really just a very slow in town ride may have added to the weight on my hands. If and when it comes time for a new model, I won't immediately dismiss a bike because it has clip on. I had a Speed 4 with clip ons and it was one of my favorite bikes. Thanks for watching and subscribing. I hope to hear from you in the future.

I love the ride down A1A during this time of year. Great scenery and lots of activity.

Yeah, A1A just may be the most scenic road in Florida.

Since my recalls I've had zero issues and zero problems... Bike runs like a dream :)

Mine was running fine before the recalls, but I figured I still better have them done. I wonder if all those quickshifter issues had to do with that detent arm?

@@scottsspeedtriplechannel I was one of the unlucky ones… My fan seized, my detent spring broke! I guess I was one of the reasons they did the recall 😄

Wow. I guess you were the reason. I remember thinking early on that some owners must have gotten real lemons. I guess all those overheating and quickshifter issues were a design problem after all. I was tempted to not have the detent arm replaced because I prefer to do my own work, but I'm really glad I did now. Thanks for the info Bucks Biker.

@@scottsspeedtriplechannel yeah, I was one of those that took one for the team... Believe me, breaking down, and having to be recovered twice was not fun. Turns out that Triumph, and all manufactures, need a certain number of problems before issuing a recall... It means that a lot of folk probably got stranded! Still, I've heard of no other issues and have had no problems so hopefully, fingers crossed, all is hunky now! I love this bike...

What do you think of the new orange RS?

​@@rogerbarfell9075I might have gone for a matte black, but every time I see the orange I think I am looking at a KTM. I'm not a fan of the orange either.

I have the RR. Two things. I have put on higher clip ons. As standard. Awful. With higher clip ons. Game changer. Electric Suspension. Like all suspension I'd argue. You find the setting you like, and don't really change it.
@scottsspeedtriplechannel
@scottsspeedtriplechannel Год назад
I think you are right. For most street riding, you basically set it and forget it. I thought I did notice the suspension of the RR stiffen a bit when I got on the throttle. I've gotten my RS set now and haven't changed it in over a year. I don't do track days. If I did I think it would be a pain to have to change the set up every time though. Thanks for watching and commenting. Enjoy your ride.

@philipjames3526 What were the higher clip ons.? Did you have to shim the fairing at all? Thanks
@philipjames3526
@philipjames3526 11 месяцев назад
So. I have the ABM clip ons. I personally wouldn't recommend. However plenty of others love them, so I think it's just me 😢.

Care to expand?. I've heard they are the only real option so I'm interested in your opinion. @@philipjames3526

Scott, did you notice a substantial difference in wind protection over the RS? The wind is a bit much for me on the RS at highway speeds. I'm leaning towards getting rid of my RS for an RR. ABM makes an adjustable set of clip ons for the RR and this might be the direction I go. Going to test ride one next week sometime.

I did not notice any difference in wind, but I only took a 20 minute ride on city roads, no highway. I only got up to speed once just as I was returning to the dealership. Let me know what you decide after your test ride.
