    Hi and welcome to the forum, quite a change moving from a Harley to a Street, am sure you will be loving the lightness, handling and that howling 675cc engine.

    Thanks Gav,
    I'm unsure if any of the local Triumph dealerships like Wellingborough have regular meetings?

    Just a wee bit. So much lighter and more responsive. I allways wanted to own a Harley from a young age and achieved it. But my Triple is just in another class and much more fun to ride.:smile:

    Welcome to the Triumph forum & fun, TripleJu! That's quite a change indeed, I rode some Harley shovelheads (1 ironhead, 1 shovel) totally for 8 years. Had other brands over the past 30 years too. I must say, the moment I stepped on my first Triumph (a '98 Sprint 900 Executive), I finally experienced what 'smooth handling' & quality production meant! I wish you many safe miles on your Street Triple :upyeah:
