Member 4 Sales / Selling a Triumph Street Triple RS
« on: February 02, 2024, 04:02:45 PM »
I'm hoping to sell a Triumph Street Triple 765RS. It is/was owned by my long time pal Jim that I have been going to the Isle of Man with for the last 30 years. Unfortunately Jim lost his battle with cancer in December last year. He had bought the bike last summer as a self reward for getting through all the cancer surgery and chemo. Before he died he asked me to sell his vehicles to help out his widow. I have so far got rid of the car and his Kawasaki ZXR750 with just the Triumph to go. Thought I would offer it to you guys first, you never know.

The bike is a 2018 Triumph Street Triple 765RS. It is in very good condition having covered a mere 5800 miles since new. Starts straight away on the button and does everything expected of it, including the compulsory clutch rattle (they all do that sir).  It has Pirelli Rosso Diablo 2 tyres on it with plenty of tread depth left. This is the one with the twin radial Brembo brakes that without the ABS would throw you over the handlebars. Looking for serious offers around the £6000 mark which is an already excellent price for this fully loaded RS model in great condition. The bike is in Lytham StAnnes, Lancashire. PM me if your interested or want any more information. The bike will shortly be advertised elsewhere.

I knew it would end up a nightmare for them. Can you see why I avoid doing them, had a few late finishes over the years. Hopefully you will be good for a few years now.

Big expense as well to change that for a standard wall mounted, plus you then need a new fire and surround.

Had a phone call this evening he has the parts - Baxi Engineer will be starting at 8.00 am - he tells me the manual time is four and a half hours to fit the new condensate tank.
That's about the right time Ted, it's a real bitch of a job to do. I hate those modern back boilers, always try to be too busy when one of those pops up. Fortunately Baxi didn't sell many so they don't come up often. One more year to go and I can wave them goodbye for ever.

Runaway train budgets, now there's a subject I'm an expert at in all the wrong ways.

Didn't I just say that Ken. Or were you meaning a new chromed rim.

Don't powder coat over the chrome blasted or not, it will come off in no time. Spokes and rims come under quite a stress that causes flexing. May be better to try a process like Ceracoat which is a ceramic coating. It flexes better than powder.

Maybe easier with new bare steel rims from Hagon. Even de-plating chrome these days is expensive.

That's a beauty Paul. Nice to see something a bit different. I know what you mean about the weight, it's becoming a common issue amongst our increasingly geriatric membership.

Can't remember if it's 750 but I did once use a rear axle to remove one. Fitted perfectly but no idea what the thread size was. I was just trying everything I had to hand that day.

That's annoying Ash. If he doesn't want them I can give them a new home.

Ash. When you did the 500 carbs for that guy what internals did you use. Were they the standard 500 jets and needles or did you swap in the 450 bits just leaving the mixture screws as 500. Did the guy ever get back to you to say how it was running.

Blimey Johnny, the engine whisperer. It's handy it's running as now it will be easy to get up the plank to the skip. ;D ;D
