    Hi everyone,


    Thanks for letting me join the forum!

    I ride a 2005 Triumph Speed Triple with 32,000 kilometers on the clock and live in Rotterdam. I’m 49 years old and ride between 12,000 and 15,000 kilometers per year.


    Before the Speed Triple, I rode a 1995 Kawasaki ZXR 750 for 14 years in all seasons and all weather conditions

    The bikes before that were also Kawasakis. I’ve had the Speed Triple for about a year now and I’m really enjoying it.


    I’m looking forward to learning a lot from the forum, especially reading about your experiences with Triumph motorcycles.


    Cheers!
