2001 Triumph TT600 review from United Kingdom
"A great little bike, unfairly ignored"
What things have gone wrong with the motorcycle?
Nothing of any significance - only a dodgy connection in one of the rear light bulbs.
General comments?
A very underrated motorcycle - not the prettiest nor the quickest, but as an all-round 600 which handles superbly (and is available very cheaply), there's not much to beat it.
I'm 6'3" and find it surprisingly comfortable too; 400 mile days pose no problem.
