The Black Knight...Sunny ride was ALMOST a success ;)

Hey Gareth.
My son in law has a Street Triple R. We swap sometimes.
I find the Street too small/fast/focused. I do like the TFT instruments though.
He says my Tiger 800 is slow and like an armchair “it’s got heated seats!â€
He rode my 500 round the block and was terrified that he’d crash it due to no brakes/handling/power.

Hi Steve. I love my Street Triple R. Best bike I've ever owned. (said in a whisper on a Honda forum!)
It is fast but only when you want it to be! 😉
I've had it for 8 years now and not planning to sell it anytime soon. My 400 will be on the road in the spring so I'll have difficult decisions on which one to ride each day.

It's going on the garage wall next to a couple of other plates from California and New Jersey. 😎
Cheers, Gareth

Working to get a few Christmas gifts ready.
Managing to get a bit done whilst waiting for new cordage and switches and stuff.
Fresh brake buttoned up and fender fitted.

The pivot was seized hard.
Boiling penetrant w heat gun. It finally freed.
I decided to make a quick change for ease of servicing ...
While the tools are out...why not do the rear pivot too?
