    Hi everyone!

    I'm the proud owner of a silver street twin. New to the Triumph brand, I have always ridden Jap bikes over the last 20 odd years. Unfortunately, I got "skittled" last October by a young, un-observant, last second, lane swapping car driver. That wrote off my SV650S and as the triumph dealer in Plymouth is only 1/4 of mile from my house.....well, you get the idea! I thought I would try something different and I have to say, I love my street twin. One or two issues at the beginning with a faulty cooling system, however, this was rapidly dealt with by the dealer....good effort boys
