    Just joined the forum and would like to say Hi.

    I have a black 1995 Speed Triple 885 which I bought last yr and am lightly restoring. Back in '96 as a young (relatively skint) Engineer I bought a Speed Triple 750 with staff family discount, loved it and only sold it when working abroad in early 2000s. So when I saw the 900 on eBay I had to bid and buy !

    I've also had a 955 Daytona and 1050 Speed Triple in the past few yrs so definitely a Triumph fan !

    Tech problem will stop me enjoying this weekends weather on the Triumph but hope you all get out at some point.

    Rich

    Hi Rich and welcome to the forum, Speed Triples are fantastic machines and guess I am going to miss my recently sold one. Hope you get chance to post some pictures of your bike.

    Hi Rich,

    Welcome. I'm not too far from Bristol, so we could maybe start the South West chapter and meet up when it is back on the road.

    Hi rich and welcome to the forum.

    Any shots of the Speed Triple I hopefully will be looking for an early one or another Trident to turn into a Cafe Racer after I have finished my CB 750 project

    I have to say I prefer the Triumph short stroke engines (750's and 1000's) instead of the long strokers (900's and 1200's) as they rev out better but it is just a matter of finding the right one for the right price.

    Cheers

    Steve
