    Hi from the east coast of Australia, I'm back riding the last couple of years after a long break. My first Triumph was a preunit Thunderbird that I customised back in the early 70's, I brought it cheap rebuilt it and it was my first big bike................Fast forward a few decades married, divorced and married again (got it right the second time) and brought another Triumph, an 02 America. Feel like a kid again, it's been a great machine and easy to work on (I do all my own work) the only thing that doesn't feel natural is breaking out metric tools to work on a Triumph.
