    Just saying hi, and introducing myself. My names Keiran, I'm 44, am a life long two wheel nut yet for, reasons un known even to myself, I have only just obtained my big bike license last month, despite saying literally every year since I was in my RD125LC at 17 that "this year I'm gunna do it" ‍♂️‍♂️ Anyway... All done now, and have recently got my hands on a 2019 Street Triple Rs, first triumph, first proper road bike, and have been on dirtbikes most of my life, so some honing of skillz and some learning ahead. I've lusted after a street triple, since seeing them for the first time at the NEC a few years back, and looking forward to getting to know her better Already have a couple of questions, and really hoping that some of you lovely peops might be able to shed some light Looking forward to hangin out, and picking up some tips

    Hi mate
    Great bike I had one a few years back and nearly went back to one when I chopped my GS in but as I am getting on in years I chose the scrambler 1200,
    Have a blast
    Mark.

    Hello Kieran and welcome along. Congratulations on getting your full licence and I hope you have a load of fun on the Street Triple. Riding dirt bikes is the best way to develop good skills for bike control, it’s how I learned many years ago.

    Welcome to the family. Just trying to teach you to suck eggs. But when you get that beastie take it gently till you get used to the power and surprises it can do to you.
    Joe.
