Those of you with modern Triumphs will know the things I mean, those little extensions screwed into the outer end of the footrests.

Was out on the Spudmasher this afternoon minding my own business, going around a roundabout there was this grinding sound, I thought WTF is that?

When I realised that the footrest had risen up a bit and then gone back down, I also realised that I gad got the angle indicator / "hero blob" down to the tarmac.

Very surprised as I was not pushing it and it felt perfectly happy.

Guess Spudmashers are not intended for "spirited" cornering.

Perhaps I need to be a bit more laid back - cruiser style man..........
