Ok, I sort of missed this newbie bit when I joined the forum, some of you have already given me heads ups and good advice already! Well for those that don't know this will be my 1st Triumph (1200 Speedmaster), always wanted one but got distracted by HD! I took a couple of test drives, once in the rain once in the very wet and loved it...traded in my much loved Dyna 103 Low Rider...wish I could have kept it but doing up my old 1980 Honda XL125 SA, which is a money bucket!..no room at the stable and the Harley was worth more.
