Hi all,
This may be a stupid, unanswerable question, but I'd love to know roughly how many of the various Kawasaki triple models there are running in the UK. Do any of the triple gurus on this site have any idea?
(yes, I do have time on my hands, but I blame it on the C word......)

Re: How many triples out there?
Thanks for the the amusing replies!
I guess the answer therefore will be to multiply the number of KTC members by an average of 10 bikes (say). I only have two triples, so I reduce the average.....

Re: How many triples out there?
A lot of members have one or two triples, but a lot also have 3 or many more. If you assume an average of 3 that would be over 2000 bikes just in the club.

Tony perhaps we could try to build up list by approaching members at renewal?Tony_d123 wrote:A lot of members have one or two triples, but a lot also have 3 or many more. If you assume an average of 3 that would be over 2000 bikes just in the club.

Not a chance. Very rarely even get an answer to the "where did you hear about us?" questionSAM wrote:Tony perhaps we could try to build up list by approaching members at renewal?

Re: How many triples out there?
Just done some sums......Nearly 1.12 million h1 500s in various guises were made from 1968 to 1976.....pretty good model run. I would guess most have gone to the USA....and a lot of them are here now !!! Gotta be 5000 plus in UK ???
