    Hello,
    thanks to a good friend i finally brought a Speed Triple at the start of this year.
    Cracking ride it is too.
    Been biking for 30+ years in all weathers, though at my age it's mainly dry riding now.
    Thank you for accepting me into your community.

    Hi Chris, Welcome to the forum, enjoy your bike as you see fit, don’t blame you for riding mainly in the dry it saves hours of cleaning!

    Good reply.
    If i get caught out in the rain then no worries to be honest.
    Trust me i've been out in horizonal rain and flood water may times in the past.
    This Speed triple is old (2002) but has 9800miles on the clock and has been really well looked after so i'm just trying to keep it that way if possible.
