My new bike (again)

I seem to be starting a trend of getting a new bike every 5-7 months or so.
That can't be good.

This time around I got myself a '01 Triumph TT600.
Great bike, sounds amazing, handling is insane and looks sexy!
Coming off of my dual sport this thing is a huge shock to the system with its obviously vastly different riding position.



Bought it with 8400 km's on it and put over 1000 on it in 5 days.
Recently went on a great ride to the mountains and found some amazing roads that I had no idea existed here.
I will definitely be coming back here!




Only problem I have with the bike is, it's too loud.
Previous owner chopped off 3" of the exhaust and maybe even gutted the internals.
I won't be sure till I open it up.
So I shall be searching for a quieter muffler to replace this one.

Bow Valley parkway?
Not sure, then there was another great bit which was the road leading up to Moraine Lake.
We also did Highway 1A which is alright but no where near the level of these other roads.

You gotta go during the day on a week day otherwise it's just backed up with traffic though.
I hear it's almost empty during the day on Tuesday.

We went on a Friday afternoon and there were some cars but nothing that posed a problem.
Plenty of passes I don't think would be possible without a fair bit of power, unless you fancy passing on blind corners.

Probably eventually put some LED turn signals up front, like I already have on the rear.

Sweet bike, I'd love to have a Triumph, is it a 3 or 4 cyl? Either way its still a sexy, unique bike.

The TT600 was Triumph's first 600cc class inline 4, but they had released the Trophy 1200 and the Daytona 1200 with inline-4 engines as early as 1991.

There is a TT600 in the black and yellow livery in my town and she is an eye catcher for sure - its a nice bike, but I think if I am going to ride a Trumpet its gonna be an inline three
