    Hi to all
    I am a newbie to this site and also Triumph's in general, having just bought an ex demo Tiger 800 XRX with lots of extras.
    I have to say, coming from a Benelli Tornado TRE, GSXR 600, and SV650 before that, this is the best, most comfortable and enjoyable bike I have ridden.
    An absolute dream!
    Looking forward to touring and days out without feeling like I have been through the ring :)
    cheers

    Hi Splatter, welcome to the Triumph playground. The XRX is a very fine machine all round.

    Hey you Surrey boys, do you get over to Box Hill?

    "Said Red Molly to James that's a fine motorbike
    A girl could feel special on any such like
    Said James to Red Molly, well my hat's off to you
    It's a Vincent Black Lightning, 1952
    And I've seen you at the corners and cafes it seems
    Red hair and black leather, my favorite color scheme
    And he pulled her on behind
    And down to Box Hill they did ride...

    / E - D A - / Bm - D - / - - - - A - - - /

    and so on..."

    Certainly do, but I think Red Molly hides when she hears me coming! (OK! I know, I know! I've left myself open for it. But no-one would be so childish as to make any innuendos, would they?)
