    Sorry about the clip and welcome again Steven, it's a great feeling having a first proper big bike. Blimey and only 22! Loads of old facts on here but I'm sure you will fit in as most of us act like teenagers when on two wheels and hidden behind a tinted visor.

    Lmao ! Well i did my 125 cbt test and loved the whole aspect of riding a bike so went in for my full bike license and bought a suzuki sv650s 2004. Was a lovely bike but not the most comfortable So went a done my car test and thought with the new season comeing up id treat myself to a new bike. The triumph is in a diffrent league to the sv. Just need somw good weather now !

    Attached is a photo of my old sv. Such a lovely colour!

    Good colour - the sv650 was going to be my first bike after passing my test almost 2 years ago (but I was an old git at 56).
    Got a Bonneville instead and then a Trident hence the reason I'm on this forum and now a Tiger - well not yet but will be picking it up this week.

    Welcome Steven. I'm very new to the group too, they're a really friendly and knowledgeable bunch! We're bringing the average age down. I'm 30 and they called me young!! (although I am riding a Bonneville so my friends are calling me an old man at the moment! Don't worry, the CBR is still there for thrashing round a track!)

    Lovely looking bike fella, enjoy!!!

    You need to ride less and get that grass cut.

    I can't! is the simple answer Dave. Looks like Thursday now as I need a lift to the garage and the girlie has kindly offered to take flexi-time off work and drop me off.

    Possibly a muffled one (isn't there an old joke about a man wrapped up in scarf and gloves going up to every woman during a trial and squeezing their breasts - as in "a muffled titter ran around the court") .
