    I'm in the market for a street twin 900. I've always had maxi scooters up till now, but now the kids have grown up and don't need ferrying about any more. I thought it time to get a proper bike.

    Anyone have one for sale, or can recommend one? I'm in West London but don't mind travelling if it's worth it.

    Many thanks..

    James

    Bulldog Triumph had a couple last week when i was over there. And i believe they will also deliver and they are a great bunch. Always looked after me and a easy to talk to. They are in Winnersh near reading. And for now welcome to the family. If you get one let the inmates see it here in the asylum as soon as you stop playing and grinning.
    Regards
    Joe.

    Welcome fellow, soon to be Street Twinner. Love mine, was out tonight, perfect fresh air ride. I do keep looking at Street Triples though...

    Good luck in the search, put your number around at some dealers is all I can suggest. I got lucky with a pre-registered one.

    Wow. What a beautiful - stunning bike... Tiny bit out of my price range though and I dont wish to insult the guy. I can only go to 5K at present. I'm starting to think I'll need to raise a little more cash..!

    Have you tried Autotrader?

    There are quite a few available for just over 5k, which could most likely be haggled for.

    One 2016 example in South Croydon, from a main dealer which is approved used, therefore with full Triumph 12 month warranty, asking price £5250: https://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/202005289595876
