    Hi Guys, my rider is AFK so thought I would grab his laptop and introduce myself as he would never get around to it.
    My name is TrumptonR and although conceived here in the UK I was actually born in the Far East. I came to London in April 2016 and settled south of the river. After all, property prices are more reasonable for a young bike just starting out.
    IMG_0308.jpg I hung around some Shoreditch and Hoxton hipster clubs for a while but as this selfie shows being " stock " left me feeling a bit like "Triumph no mates". I started working out and came up with a plan. Evolution not revolution. Not bad thinking for a one year old,eh?

    Initially I put a little weight on at the rear with a simple peg and saddle makeover but I knew my new American pipes would give me the ego boost I needed when they eventually turned up What is "back order" anyway?
    So finally I bit the bullet and had the facelift everyone said I needed to really join the Cafe set. At least as a junior member.
    And this is me....for the moment. Home, relaxing with friends.

    So, before my rider returns, I just want to say thanks for the opportunity to say hello to everyone and I look forward to chatting to you all again.

    PS, what on earth was that last recall all about? I was coughing and spluttering around town cutting out at traffic lights. Talk about embarrassing! My rider thought I was losing it. Still, a bit of minor surgery and I'm all better now.

    Later Guys/Gals.

    Feck me!!:eek:
    Another bloody loony joining this august body of strange people.:worried:
    But this one is purporting to be a sodding motorcycle of all things - albeit a very nice one! FFS .... really? On this forum?? Why? Is somebody withholding vital information? How is Nursey going to cope?:scream: Are we going to need stronger meds? Will there be enough crayons to go round? Is the world round? Is space infinite? Is this a piece of cake? It is?:) Ooh goody goody, yum yum!:yum

    Ah yes, cake .... the forum cure all!:grinning::sun:
