    Hi,
    New to the forum so Hi everyone.
    I currently own a Speedtriple 1050R Dark EDT- 9/50.
    This is my second Speedtriple 1050R and love it.
    I look forward to reading and learning from this site and hopefully will put some input in also that may help others.
    Pictures of current Dark Edt 1050R.
    Cheers

    Haha I know....the car is a option I've had to go with for the Summer as I snapped my crutiate ligament earlier this year and just got a last minuite cancellation through for ACL reconstructive surgery so cant bloody ride this year unfortunately...gutted to say the least....must admit though..no car is even close to a substitute for bike as I've always rode and never been bothered with cars, convertible or not so quite disappointed to say the least..I just have to keep going in the garage and doing little bits to bike while it's off the road...not much more I can put on it now but cars a gonna once I can ride bike again, that's for certain.:weary_face:
