    Hello from Cumbria,

    I've just purchased my very first Triumph, and I've taken a great leap into a new style of riding... but it's fun!!!


    Hope to get loads of useful advice and banter,

    See you soon

    Welcome lovely looking bike. I have a Thunderbird myself.
    Welcome lovely looking bike. See you have panniers. Great bikes for touring. Took mine to France last year surprisingly comfortable and got a lot more attention than the jap bikes and Harley I was riding with.

    Thank you all for your warm welcome.
    Seems a friendly bunch... I've already had my first "eee, that's nice lad... I had a nineteen (something) side valve as my first bike... " etc and I've only ridden it 120 miles!

    Yeah, how I bought it... I intend to ride it more than it has been, so I expect some deterioration... but they are built to ride!

    Having purchased the bike I desired... I've just laid out the best part of £300 to alter it!!! With more mods planned... anyone know if there has been any Legend projects on here?
