Passed full test January 2020 and got a 2018 Triumph Street Twin 4 days later. Rode through lockdown as a Volunteer Helper so on clear London roads. Did my 1st BikeSafe 2020 too. Gradually optimising my Street Twin with mods (TEC Bike Parts and Triumph).
Pianist, drummer, percussionist, accordionist, music teacher, writer.
Other passions are fitness (BJJ, HIIT), food (cooking and eating!) and travel.
Plans - getting a garage, putting in my bike, a gym and music studio (and spending most of my time there!), opening a biker cafe.

For my Street Twin:

Fitted:

1. TEC Pannier Rails
2. Triumph Square Mirrors
3. Puig Protective Spool Sliders Black
4. Tail Tidy
5. Crafton Atelier Ribbed Seat
6. TEC Levers in Black
7. Head bolt covers.
8. Pirelli Scorpion Trail II tyres.
9. Triumph Large Indicators Front and Back
10. Bar end finishers - in black to replace the stock greys. Easy 5 minute job (but when clearly for aesthetics could Triumph not make the screws black too?! They call it a "kit"...hardly...it's 2 bar ends with a screw for each.
11. Triumph Chrome Clutch Badge.

Bought and waiting to fit:

1. Triumph Clutch Cable Guide - Black
2. Triumph Black Engine Bolt Kit.
3. Triumph Finned Header Rings - Black.
4. Triumph TPMS - I'm going to flog these....anyone interested?
5. Triumph Rear Wheel Adjuster Kit - Black.
6. Triumph Heated Grips - just outside my comfort zone with tank removal etc so will get done at Triumph London, quoted 1 hour at £132 inc VAT (they were doing a free fitting for these at one point..doh!)
7. TEC Rebel 2-1 Stainless - Full de-cat high flow exhaust performance system - will probably wait until I move to a home with a garage before tackling this.
8. TEC Progressive Front Suspension - again pending garage.
9. TEC Rear Alloy Gas Shocks - pending garage.
10. TEC Paddock Stand Bobbins - Axle Adapter Bobbins Kit for rear wheel
11. TEC Sump/Engine Guard, Alloy Bash Plate in Black
12. TEC Cam Change - Will deffo get a specialist to install.

Next Purchases:

Spoked Wheels - I would get the Triumph ones (in black of course) as they on a deal atm but won't as they not compatible with tubeless and that a deal breaker. Tubeless spoked available but on the hunt for ones at more reasonable prices...
