    Hey..my name is Charley and I live in Washington State. I’ve been riding since I was 9, mostly dirt, but my first road bike was an 1954 AJS g80sc and my dad’s dirt bike was a 56 Matchless G80SC as well. Over the years I have had a few triumphs and am looking for my next, hopefully the one I will keep. My current ride is a BMW r1200 gs, but I am looking for a early to late 60s Triumph for a fun ride around my area.

    Thank you all for the warm welcome. I posted a question in the classic section about a 64 Thunderbird I found..if you all haven’t seen it please take a look and let me know your thoughts on my potential find. Thanks again for the nice welcome
