    Thuruxton.jpg Just wanted to say hello and get my 1st post in.
    Picked up a new Thruxton R last week, put 560 miles on it already in four days.
    Need to get it in for service now.
    Just have to say what an amazing bike, never had so many people want to take pictures of one of my bikes and talk about it. All ages too.

    You should get to the 12,000 mile service pretty quickly at this rate! Welcome from another newbi and enjoy the bike

    Cheers, it's all tucked up now for a couple of weeks, don't have time to get it in for service, working away.
    It's going to be used for nice dry days only, so shouldn't get the mileage up too quickly now.
    Got a daily all weather ride.

    I'll lend it you but you'd have to pay it back at 25k a week for four weeks

    Great looking machine mentalist.

    Think that front fairing adds a great look to an already gorgeous machine.

    Welcome in.
