    hello everyone,

    Had a few trumpets (sprint rs, speed four, tona 600, tona 955 X2, sprint st, tiger 1050, speed 1050, STR 675) and just ordered a Speed 94R in yellow-hence the username. Delighted to be back on the triple, gettin shut of my 2011 speed remains a big regret.

    Hopefully I'll have the wasp tricked out soon, but it'll have to be done slowly, as carbon is quite expensive. It's a beautiful but costly addiction.

    I'll be pickin your brains, and hopefully I'll be able to pay it forward, as I do have a bit of history with triumph.

    Much better in the flesh, so to speak. Never ever considered a yellow bike, but it just looks right. Spent way more than I'd planned but I NEED it.

    Yeah had loads of triumphs but it's the only bike make I've not had an issue with. Doin the factory tour a few years ago was an eye opener. Total commitment to quality in the building of these bikes, and it shows in the finished product.

    Thanks for the warm welcome.

    Bob
