    Well I sold my 'old' Sprint ST 955 and have been looking for a newer Trumpet. I wanted a 1050 and was looking at another Sprint and possibly a GT. I was also considering a Tiger but since I am vertically challenged I was baulking at the seat height! I found one reasonably close to home and went to look at it today. Full service history, recent new tyres, chain and sprockets, Scottoiler, Arrow can, hugger, Triumph gel seat and lowering kit! Brilliant. Took it for a ride and loved it. No stiff left arm (I have arthritis in my elbow) and can see over hedges plus that wonderful triple and best of all I can touch the floor. So I bought it. Whats not to like! Can't wait for Friday when its delivered!

    Welcome from another Norfolk biker, maybe see you at Whitwell on Friday nights after the clocks change, or maybe before!

    Whitwell isn’t far from me so that could be a possibility

    He traded it for an Africa Twin. While I was there he popped in to chat to the staff!

    That looks lovely. In fact, being a short-arse myself it would do me nicely :)
