    Alright everyone! Just joined. I've had my Triumph Sprint GT for just over a year now after having Japanese bikes for years. Love the engine on these bikes! I also have an Aprilia RST1000 Futura which I also like just because there aren't too many of them about. Looking forward to using the forum. Great place for advice these forums. Cheers!

    Welcome. It is a bike forum but we do talk a lot of bollocks most of the time. Well, the rest of the inmates do...

    When it's back together. Wheels are off it at the moment getting powder coated,then new tyres fitted. Expensive! 2nd one I've had. Only got rid of the first cos my missus didn't like the under seat exhaust,kept burning her backside!

    This is my Aprilia RST1000 Futura,just back on the road after having the wheels powder coated, not bad for a 15 year old bike.
