    I have a new one, too!

    I just picked up a 2000 Triumph RS. This will allow the ZX6 to become a track-only bike.

    Nice. Sprint RS's are great bikes. I almost bought one, but then realised that fast bikes are bad, bad news for me. Still want one though...

    Re: I have a new one, too!

    Yeah, it was dirty and not cared for the way it should have, but luckily the guy I bought it from (second owner) only owned it for a year and 1000 miles, so the neglect was minimal.

    I worked on it yesterday to fix a vacuum leak and it looks pretty darn good under the hood. While I was under there, I opened the airbox to find about a pound of acorns and other chipmunk debris.

    The Triumph has a bit of a beast-like character with its three cylinder engine, and it is definitely not Japanese. The motor is very mechanical and a bit rough, which is cool. In a lot of ways, it's very much like the MZ Scorpion I used to own.

    Now it's time to put the track glass on the ZX6 and put the perfect stock bodywork into bubblewrap. I managed to ride three full track day seasons without crashing it, so it still looks perfect.
