Don’t think it’s uncommon to have bikes tucked away in the garage with no or little use. Lived in my house for 20 years and only noticed 6 months ago the guy opposite has a BSA Gold Star in his garage, never seen the light of day. Rode my Monster 80 miles on Sunday, that’s a quarter of my annual mileage complete already, well chuffed !
Had a good laugh with my MOT bloke last month - both bikes around 700 miles each since last MOT. I reckon last year was the wettest ever, so my fingers are crossed for a better 'season' this year. The recent sunny weather has meant I'm on a regular 3-bike rotation! Unfortunately I've damaged my right calf - kickstarting the Triumph last weekend in a vigorous manner... Urgh that'll tach me to be so unfit!
Your Triumph is giving you a sign that you aren’t youthful enough to ride it any longer and it’s time to part with it. I’ve large bags of Wotsits on stand by……..
