Returning To Triumph

Discussion in 'Newbies Hangout' started by Welsh Tiger, Nov 2, 2019.

  1. Hi there, I'm coming back to Triumph having had a 12 month 'experiment' with Harley Davidson. I rode a Speedmaster (865cc) until a year ago before buying a HD Ultra Classic. The Harley looked amazing but was a monster to handle. I pick up my new Tiger 1200 XRT next week. I also ride a BMW 1200RT as a Blood Biker,

    Welcome to the family. Like you I had Harleys I preferred the wide glides. They are good machines and in my humble still and always will be king of custom. Do drop the inmates here a picture of the steeds. Just hit the upload a file bottom right and quieten us all while nursey dishes out our meds.
    Regards & Ride Safe.
    Joe.

    Terrific looking machinery you have there. Thanks for sharing the pictures. The nursey will have an easy day whilst the inmates ogle those steeds. Just looking at your roads there that is a lovely looking stretch of bike testing road.
    Regards & Ride Safe
    Joe.
