parts are still available for it...but it is hit or miss at best as to what is in stock at Triumph stateside and could take 6-12 weeks at best to get it from England

It may not matter anyway, No call back from the guy. Price is $1500.
I thought the parts thing was a bit better for Triumph than it sounds like. 6-12 weeks sounds like Ducati a few years back.

they're not really that bad. its just that that with something that isn't as popular as that bike you could be waiting for a very long time for stuff.

Yea what's the problem? Shit I'm tempted and I'm laid off!!! Fuck $1500 ain't shit and it looks like he'd take less. Offer a grand and settle at $1300.

He didn't put a phone number in the ad. I emailed him our number and told him we wanted to look at it, but no call...

Fuck! That sucks! If that bike looks even 75% that good I'd go for it if I were you! If you can get the guy that is... I'd E-Mail him again, maybe his filter mistook you for spam! You didn't Email from work did you?

I got "downsized" the day before the rally, so I don't have a work to email from I'm going to email him again though, just to be safe.
