£1,700 for triumph accessories is about right. I got my Street covered in bling and there was a receipt for it all. I could find the following prices:
Arrow can - £482
Screen - £112
Cowl - 73.50
Belly pan 115.00
Frame protectors 115
rear hugger 60
Tail tidy 155

I suspect that Blade's bike was supplied with all the gear as an end of year deal or something similar.

Or the owner had a shit load of money.

Either way, Blade is the winner.

I think "my bad" is just an apology...a contraction of "my bad judgment" or something along those lines..."my mistake", etc.

Enjoy the bike. It looks fantastic.
That's what I'm hoping will be the case for me also. As sat rigid in wind blast on a motorway for hours and hours on end is a lot different to scratching up lanes.

This is the screen

Similar list and prices mate (y) but obviously he had to buy 2 arrow cans.

Had a route through the pack more and found an invoice for a sale that fell through on 22nd June this year. Bloke paid a grand more than me (whew)

The sales guy did tell me it had previously sold, but only because I asked why part of a form was tipex'd out, but he didn't mention figures, just the other guy lost his deposit. Seems one guys loss is another's gain (lol)

I can't understand why someone would put out that much cash on a deposit & then not follow through.
Madness.

That'll help explain the bargain you got then. They've made a grand profit without selling it :D

So I had a play around with her yesterday in the garage and I'm very pleased and impressed with the quality. Triumph have definitely moved things on in the last few years and it's a very easy bike to work on.

The bling list reads as follows

Arrow Exhausts
Frame Protector
Fork Protectors
Tail Tidy
LED indicators
Radiator Guard
Fly screen
Wheel finisher
Pazzo levers

I've order a Oil Cooler guard, some bar end sliders and a speedo angel (y) dont think she needs much else but welcome to suggestions (happy)

Mirrors are brilliant (y)

@Kwacky fuel caps not a bad shout mate (y) standard one is quite blingy but there obviously some nice ones around. Maybe you can be Rizoma consultant (happy)
