    Greetings!
    I'm on my second Triumph. Had a Tiger 800 xcx for several years and I bought a speed twin last year. Speed twin is my 6th and favorite bike so far

    I’m in Seattle too, and pretty close to Triumph of Seattle. Nice mods! Your bike looks great, and the red colorway is especially tasty.

    I too have gone with Ohlins, and also the Meerkat crossover (isn’t that a nicely made part?). Stainless silencers cause they just look better than the black ones.

    However, maybe the best mod I’ve made is a set of Arton Works gauge faces. Best hundred bucks you will spend on your Speedy; after all you look at the gauges all the time. You can install them yourself, it’s easy peasy.
