Show us your motorcycles

RE: Show us your motorcycles
This was my last bike, a 2006 Triumph Sprint ST 1050 that I bought new. It had a big screaming triple for an engine, that makes only the sound a triple can make, with a wide flat torque curve that pulled hard from idle. A real joy to ride.

We had some good trips together, including down to MotoGP at Laguna Seca in 2009 and to the Black Hills in South Dakota, plus numerous trips in BC/AB/SK. I installed an LSL handlebar conversion kit, heated grips, a heated vest plug in by the seat, a Heatroller control for the vest and a hi/lo switch for the grips on the left fairing panel, and a Garmin Zumo 550 GPS. I had a top box as well and the cheap fabric stays broke so I made new ones from aircraft cable. It was set up pretty nice.

Last photo is from my MotoGP trip, loaded up for touring in Hopland, California.

It flipped off the lift on the back of my coach on the maiden voyage in May 2010 and was totalled. It was preceded by a 1996 Triumph Sprint 900 triple, a 1995 Kawasaki Ninja 500 twin, and a 1980 Yamaha XT250 enduro.
