Congrats on the new ride, Sean.
btw how long have you had the Triumph? I remember a yellow MGB?

I’ve had the Spit for two summers now. I traded the Bee for a red Beetle Vert in the fall a while back. Rational was to have a back seat for the pups.Congrats on the new ride, Sean.

You only have one life to live so, gonna try and live it well. Researched out the quirks and there seems to be enough support to manage any issues I may encounter. Appreciate your comments, makes me smile.Such an awesome bike. The 80 was actually a better bike than the 100. Very smooth with smaller pistons. But the airhead had it's quirks. Charging system wasn't very reliable, and expensive to fix. Speedo drive cable bolted to the transmission with a special drilled bolt that was also the negative ground. When it vibrated out people would replace it with a plain hex head bolt and carry on. But wonder why thier trans oil looked like choc milk.(no vent for moisture). But one of the best touring bikes ever made.
I’m off Bernard Ave on Evadere Ave a couple of blocks from the beach. Stop in a a beer anytime. The fridge is stocked and the stories will be self deprecating knee slapping funny.I'll keep an eye out for the Spitfire next summer.
I think Ridgeway is a cool place. Sure is growing, heading east along Dominion Rd.
Enjoyed Brimstone Brewing a few times as well.
