    Hi all. Just took delivery today of my first ever Triumph. Went for a 2017 Street Triple R in white with arrow exhaust. What can I say other than it’s the most fabulous, mesmerising machine I’ve ever ridden! I traded my Ducati Monster for it, which was nice, but the street is in a whole new league. Love it.
    Looking forward to plenty of banter and miles

    Welcome to the Family. And yes a terrific machine you have there. It will help Nursey tonight as the inmates ogle it.
    Ride Safe & Enjoy
