    Yes so far the Triumph seems a nice bike, stable at slow speeds and relaxing to ride. EMini Parts! Don't even think I'm coming up to you for the 5th gear! hahaha

    Nice bike Chris. I always wanted a Bonneville. Gave up bikes in 1970 after crashing my Norton Atlas. Be careful out there. As you already know, you are invisible to people & never have the right of way. Have fun stay safe my friend.

    Thanks chuck, Crashing is not an option so steady as she goes! I hope you were not injured when you crashed? Today a co-worker suggested a back road to home/work which was really nice so I'll be taking that route from now on, less stress.

    Gotta love the back roads. They are all I use if at all possible. :D

    The road less traveled is the most enjoyable. :Thumbsup:

    Back in the US and back on the Bike, not quite the thrill of a rally car but the experience is going on me.... brought some chain lube today.

    A very nice weekend taking my motorbike license test with 11 other like minded bikers. The end result is I now have a M on my license.

    It was nice explaining the driving style needed to drive a rally car which is a wee bit different to rding a bike.

    finally got to go for a ride for just going for a ride. A beautiful day here in MA today, went out for around 3 hours with some freeway driving. I really enjoyed it and even met some Harley owners who once owned a Triumph. Only issue so far is a dead battery.

    First day on the bike today, was a little greasy this morning but dried out for the home run back. Nice to be on the open road even though another indian guy pulled out on me.
