    Triumph Outlet Store has a few deals going at the moment - only a few sizes available though, and shipping would be 13-15 euro if you are not using Parcel Motel.

    .....I'll let you know what they're like when they get here: just ordered one for myself.

    Naturally, I don't actually need the jacket. Retail Therapy and all that........

    I bought one of those textile ones myself, couldn't help it for £20 - might come handy some day in summer, when it's pouring down day after day.

    And now, don't open if you suffer from buyers remorse (although probably not as good as Triumph stuff, which is supposed to be mostly rebranded Alpinestars..): http://shop.motorcyclenews.com/product/178/frank-thomas-pacific-textile-jacket

    Hmmm... Fine Vision Universal fit photo-chromatic(!!) anti-fog insert, made by Pinlock, for visors that doesn't have pinlock, and just £9.99. What is not to like? I wonder if there's any reviews online on this one. Google Time!

    Was just about to buy one but the billing address has to be from the UK?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,403 ✭✭✭positron


    For billing address, I filled in my real full address, and set "County Antrim" and "BT36 4PX" which is the location of ParcelMotel where I am getting this delivered to. My visa card transaction went thru fine.

    I looked at bikes half that price and not a patch on it.

    Them VFRs are really nice in the right colour like the silver above, I just wish they would design a better looking single swing arm the big fat nub on the opposite back wheel looks so so bad. Takes the whole look off the bike for me.

    I think this same bike was up on done deal 2 months ago for over 5k. http://www.donedeal.ie/for-sale/motorbikes/4006241

    I got mine delivered thru PM and I have stuck it to the visor - fits well on the Nitro Aikido, and although I haven't had a chance to test it on the bike, it looks like there's a tiny bit of tint on it even when it's fully clear. Real test will be tomorrows commute.

    Different bike. I know and have ridden the €3k one before. It sold to the first caller. My mates phone was melting with calls as soon as the ad went up.

    This is the probably the best time to buy, prices are flat, and the weather hasn't turned bad enough for a bike to be tested.

    Why was he selling it so cheap? Someone on biker.ie said the got it for €2,800. Would have thought your mate would have easily got the 3 for it.

    :p

    ....Not a bargain, but interesting: there was a 1600-mile old RC30, (obviously a collector's piece at this stage.......) in MotorCycleNews last week, for £16,000.

    The interesting part is the seller was.........in Cork.

    http://www.motorcyclenews.com/MCN/bikes-for-sale/searchresults/detail/Honda/RC30/1988/_/R-NXGN-7584215

    So, which one of ye is it, then ?


    better bloody investment than savings in a Bank tbh..........and they can't tax the MoFo out of it either......
