    Getting this next week, had the 1600 and loved it.
    Looking forward to back on Triumph after 5 year of Harley

    Nice, congrats. Looks like a Commander, but with the LT additional lights and screen?

    It's a bloody good bike, still have mine, although I ride the rocket more. Whenever I get back on the Commander though, it's a lovely experience. Infact, I'd say the Rocket has made me a poorer rider, with it's qucikshifter, traction control, and all the cleverness, when I get back on the commander, I have to remember to actually ride the damn thing :joy:. I used to be able to hustle it, keeping up with my friends on their much sportier bikes round the twisties ... I have no idea how though!

    Oh yeah, durrr :D, I was looking at the indicators and got confused :joy:

    In case you're ever interested, I upgraded the indicators to LEDs (get rid of that fried egg look), and also changed the headlights to LEDs. Both totally optional of course, but I made quite a few mistakes trying to get ones that worked for both, and if you'd be interested, I can try and traipse through emails to see which I ended up with.

    Also, if you don't like the screen, then you might (if not taking a pillion) like the single seat rack. Gives it a really clean sporty look.

    Great color scheme!

    Triumph made the America in a similar scheme towards the end of the light cruiser run.

    Beautiful.
