    hi, I love the classic range of triumphs. I want a first bike which looks cool around town and will be great for weekend/evening rides with a thrill, yet I want to be able to tour comfortably in Europe/U.K. perhaps once/twice a year.
    Can any one give me some ideas, new PCP, older bikes. Thanks

    Any of the bonnie range, including T100, T120, Street Twin, america, speedmaster to name a few.... You could also look at the thunderbirds; all will provide as great ride.

    Cheers for the welcome and suggestions.
    I'm going to test a street twin and street scrambler on Friday!

    T100?
    What's the luggage options for the bike? Can you get adequate panniers on those?
