    Welcome to the Family. You know we need to see a picture of the steed. Nursey may be able to help with the grin on you noggin as she and Triumph are working on a fix as riders are complaining that it is hurtful after a few weeks of permeant grin. The triple with that triple ripple and attitude is a formattable beastie. Tell us more about your thoughts.
    Ride Safe & Enjoy.
    Joe.

    This is the beast! It’s got a tail tidy now and another couple of extras.

    How about the Michelin Road 5s? I’ve heard good things about them from a couple of mates who’ve got them, and the Michelin website even has a video of them on a Striple! :p https://www.michelin.co.uk/motorbike/tyres/road-5

    Great looking steed you have there. You will score extra meds from nursey tonight with that colour. The inmate will ogle for ages black is in here at the asylum.
    Ride Safe & Enjoy
